"A Slippery Slope sounds like a fusion of airy ’60s pop and contemporary indie-pop, with the result being as infectiously irresistible as expected. The self-titled track, “Ogres”, sees the same delivery in equally impressive form, though the wildly impressive chorus relies on a newly implemented collaboration between guitars and lighthearted keys to establish a sound more reminiscent of ’60s pop...There is always a tinge of psychedelia and surf music in The Delfields’ enjoyable formula, with the heavy bass line in “Honest” and the reverbed twang in “Francine” being just a few of the agreeable examples on the impressive release...If these guys do not find themselves on a respectable label by the end of the year, I will be quite surprised."-ObscureSound.com
"The Delfields have a vibe reminiscent of an Of Montreal (more The Gay Parade and less of Hissing Fauna...)/The Mountain Goats (circa All Hail West Texas)/Sunny Day Real Estate (Diary, of course) love child... if three bands could reproduce, or if three humans could reproduce in such a way, that is.
Tracks such as 'A Slippery Slope', 'Honest', and 'Our Beds' have a fun up-tempo sound that perfectly blend acoustic guitars, simple melodic keyboards and complementary laid-back drumming into a cheerful soundtrack for midwinter. (Or as The Delfields say, 'music to ride your bike to.')"-NewJerseyHipster.com
