edw to original review:
'This New York post-rock group's first full-lenght album is as ambitious and experimental as their previous work, mixing drum loops, crunching guitar riffs, electronic swirls, and syncopated jazz rythms to sizzying effect. But where their EPs were coldly avant-garde, Mirrored is playful and poppy, as shown by gateway single 'Altas', a synth-laden glam-rock stomp overlaid with the helium vocals of a steroid-pumped Smurf. A number of other tunes - such as the hypnotically ravey 'Leyendecker' - have equally dancable melodies. Gratifyingly catchy, Mirrored is proof that innovative music need not to be impenetrable.'
