Crocodiles - Sleep Forever

Drowned In Sound“Arrogant self-indulgence...” How infuriating it is to realise that Crocodiles have songs that would do very well, trimmed of their five-plus-minute-fat and condensed into less-than-three-minute reverb and keyboard lead hazes...

Pitchfork“Crocodiles bring the tunes...” A muggy churn that builds on Echo and company's own Crocodiles while working in more krautrock palpitations and a druggy Madchester-like bustle. It's brasher, fuller, woolier, with little shards of sound scraping against the speakers...

allmusic“Honing in on melodies...” With Simian Mobile Disco's James Ford behind the boards, the duo’s music is glossier and more digitized — yet, Ford manages to retain the sense of grit that put them on the noise pop map...

NME“The creeping creatures of the noir pop underworld get their wings...” If San Diego’s Crocodiles sound flawless on paper, they damn well prove it on record: this second album flies in the face of their heroes’ druggy mumblings by roaring monumental pop tunes from beneath the sonic silt...

MusicOMH“Crowd-pleasing rock star quality...” Crocodiles are a talented rock band with a strong sense of songwriting, for sure, but they're also very happy to be playing music, and that joy shines through any amount of fuzz Sleep Forever might throw at you...
