Mar 3, 2016You never find yourself in the presence of music that sounds self-consciously clever. Everything flows easily, nothing jars.

Feb 22, 2016A truly enjoyable record, a durable collection of interesting and exciting pop music that is hopefully only the first of many to come from Christine and the Queens.

Q MagazineFeb 22, 2016There's melodrama aplenty, but it's the meaningful lyricism in both French and English--and a smart Kanye sample on Paradis Perdus--that make it really sparkle. [Apr 2016, p.102]

UncutFeb 29, 2016This expertly wrought debut is an impressive platform for twentysomething polymath Heloise Letissier. [Apr 2016, p.71]

Dec 3, 2022A great album. Has enough leftfield quirk to keep you interested in the music and enough pop for you to want to dance. The vocals make it, sublime.
