Blogs:
"There's no shortage of quality song-writing on this set, and although the production is smooth, there's also plenty of texture woven into the sonic fabric of the tracks. There are some gritty distorted guitar sounds to be found on 'Way Outside' for example." - Music Emissions
"...the duo of Andrew Leary and Oliver Keech are more than the sum of their parts, creating intelligent, thought provoking '90s style polished pop gems. In fact, forget all your cheesy Lady Gagas and Little Bootsies, when it comes to reviving '80s electro pop, Relation are the daddy." - Sound Advice
