"For a modern debut to not pander to any trend - or to be a slave to the algorithm in- is a joy in itself, but the fact that `Birthday' has so many `WTF' moments of satisfaction makes the risk all the more worthwhile. It's a triumph of joy and instinct over good taste and common sense. You'll love it, or you'll hate it, you'll have no idea what's going on, but revel in the fact that a debut like this is allowed to exist".

"Pom Poko is a band that refuses to make predictable choices. Their music contains no clean lines or pat conclusions. Birthday is an audacious debut album that is as messy and comforting as an unmade bed".

"Den norske kvartet Pom Poko er langt mere sofistikerede, teknisk dygtige på deres fremragende debutalbum Birthday. Men der er også en amokstemning. Hør den bøjelige skønhed a la walisiske Cate Le Bon i den formidable forsanger Ragnhild Fangel Jamtveits sang. Men også hvordan hun løfter sig i furielignende fraseringer a la landsmandinden Jenny Hval ... der kan også være noget barnligt over Jamtveits stemme. Hør bare »If U Want Me 2 Stay«, hvor hun har fundet gjaldende børneintervaller i tonehoppene. Det er nuttet, samtidig med at du får tæv af bandet. Kontrasterne er voldsomme, et genreclash i realtime. En nysgerrig, åben vision, som får mig til at tænke på Björks tidligere band, The Sugarcubes. Nyd, hvor smukt Pom Poko styrtdykker mod os".
