"If more twee acts balanced wit, bile, and heart like this track does, they wouldn't bore their detractors off of so many balconies." - PITCHFORKMEDIA
"Pelle Carlberg is the new, sweet voiced, string-dappled conqueror in town." - MAGNET MAGAZINE
"The album is indeed frequently pretty and always very witty" - STYLUS
"the ambiguous humor of Carlberg's narratives matches the odd bounce of Belle and Sebastian (there's a lot of Stuart Murdoch in his voice as well) or Jonathan Richman in recent years" - PREFIX MAG
