"The Moon Upstairs have pulled off a difficult feat, bringing together disparate, yet connected, styles and making something cohesive with their own individual stamp on it. If you give this album a bit of a chance, the songs will get under your skin and stay with you – and that's the best trick of all."
(Dusted Magazine)
"...A real band. Not some sort of theme park dress up act."
(George Parsons, Dream Magazine)
"The group is able to bring in vocal harmonies and guitars with a few elements of a late Pink Floyd feeling to great effect, but not everywhere. Elsewhere, they also use hard psychrock guitar arrangements in their songs. And still, with all this, they don't belong there, but belong here, in this world, expressing poprock for the new generation, sophisticated with something of the old one."
(Psyche Van Het Folk)
"...In the spirit of bands like Gorky’s Zygotic Mynci and the later orchestrated workings of Mercury Rev, they still cosmically align with more current youngsters like Swedish psych rockers Dungen." (StonerRock.com)
"...At times sounding like The Black Heart Procession with higher-pitched, pretty vocals." (Swan Fungus)
"...Like a drug-induced head trip, it's as haunting as it is beautiful."
(LA Weekly)
"...Psych-pop recalls the Brit-rock of the early ‘70s. Taking its name from a Mott the Hoople song and citing George Harrison, Pink Floyd, the Plastic Ono Band and Funkadelic as influences, the Moon Upstairs manages to wear its influences on its sleeve while putting a fresh spin on the genre." (L.A. Record)
