Curiosity

"Not surprisingly, the best-written songs, like the brooding pop ballad "I Can't See Why," stand out. Even so, there's enough potential in more atmospheric tracks such as "Spirit Forest" and "Snacks" to suggest that the moods they create could be supported by stronger hooks next time around. Indeed, as uneven as Curiosity sometimes is, its mix of goofiness and melancholy is compelling enough to make it hard to dismiss Wampire completely".

"Wampire's debut LP, Curiosity, is a record made backwards, at least by today's bass-dropping standards. Most artists start incorporating drum machines and laptops only after they've moved on from traditional instruments. Wampire went the opposite route, resulting in a short-but-sweet assembly of synth pop that's focused without sounding rigid, fresh yet reverent to a host of A-list influences, and insatiably listenable".
