Sep 15, 2014On Worship the Sun, their subtle excavation is even more impressive, richly rendered, and worth checking out than before.

Sep 15, 2014Despite their implacable cool there’s a lot of soul searching going on here and the band turn their back on the superficial and hedonistic L.A, setting out in search of something deeper and more profound. In Worship The Sun they find it.

MojoSep 12, 2014There's much of Lawrence's beguiling attention to detail present here. [Oct 2014, p.94]

Sep 16, 2014At their best, the Allah-Las still conjure the tones and attitudes of bygone decades, but at its weakest, Worship The Sun degenerates to mono-tempo drone.
-
Sep 11, 2014The second half of Worship The Sun is weaker than the first, it has to be said. And that could just be because the first eight songs (minus 'Recurring') are so damn good.

Sep 17, 2014Worship The Sun definitely won’t disappoint fans of their self-titled debut, and the extra production values only adds to their refreshingly carefree style. A perfect album to hang onto the last remnants of long, hazy summer days.

-
Sep 15, 2014There is a point where the vocals (all four Las sing) stop being retro nasal tributes and start sounding a little thin.

Q MagazineSep 11, 2014Everything here feels like a Xerox of something that's been done before.[Oct 2014, p.102]

Sep 11, 2014There’s a definite progression in the songwriting and the tunes are soaked in the kind of timeless California sunshine you just don’t get from Brits.
