Opening with the atmospheric, propulsive "Day by Day," this disc would be perfect accompaniment for a spy movie, with its trick-start beginnings ("Amsterdam"), tick tock rhythms coupled with floaty drones ("Zoomer Goodnight") and plenty of disco guitars for those spies' nights off. They'll probably even get the girl at the end. Romantic avant-garde indie new-wave poptronica? Yes, please. -- Remix Magazine
Excellent album from a trio of Siberians who mix driving, droning guitars with thick buzzing electronics. It has a touch of New Order and Ratatat to it, a bit of breakbeat and a dark Flaming Lips-like beauty that seems to be found only in places not on the musical map. Cool. -- Playboy Magazine, US
An electronics whiz, a bassist, and a drummer, all from Siberia, open up their debut album with a cute, curvy indie-pop tune about being on tour - but quickly they unveil a surprisinf array of dance beats, expert pacing, killer sonic kicks, and a rich atmospherics. Invoking vintage European film soundtracks, American rock classics, and '90s U.K. pop, the album is exhilaratingly integrated, avoiding the usual gauche misalliances of rock, disco, and techno. - Spin Magazine
