    Mad excellent! Just a well realized lo-fi style, very distorted, self deprecating lyrics. It kind of just flies by since it's so uniform and carefully executed

    Lvl Up never made guitars feel more relevant than they do on their third album and Sub Pop debut Return to Love.

    Return to Love exhibits a surfeit of hooks, stuffed to the gills with sublime melodic instincts.

    They’re just the latest to move these pieces around--to use distortion pedals and droning vocals to unpack the mysteries of the universe. But there’s a confidence that with time they could be the ones to finally solve the puzzle.
