John Davis is a songwriter that just can't make a bad song. It's just not within his abilities to suck at music. That being said, this is another cool chapter in the Book Of Being Awesome. Nerve Salad

i’m a huge fan of John Davis. just a brilliant, beautiful musical mind. i am also a home recordist and multi-instrumentalist, so i am quite partial to his 4-track home recordings. Drones Over Donelson is one of my favorite collections of music of all time. but you can’t go wrong with anything he’s made available. i also really dig his cover of The Jesus and Mary Chain’s “Never Understand”. wish it was still available to stream. but yeah, go John!!!! derek

Armstrong’s voice reminds me of Sugar and track one fits comfortably in that realm, but there's more to this band than throwback. Prolific bandmate Davis compliments with performances and songwriting that differ enough to elevate the sound without creating contrast that disrupts the continuity of so many great records with two strong writers. As usual, strong production from Purcell rides a line between reverence and experimentation for an easy listen that never seems stale or unchallenging. simon lynn

Shoegaze ist die Kunst des Dröhnens, doch „Everything Is Alive“ setzt diese Elemente nur sparsam ein. Statt Hall- und Zerr-Sounds aufzutürmen, schäumt die Musik in feinen Bläschen über.
