"På sit første album i fem år foretager Alynda Segarra - alias Hurray for the Riff Raff - et ret tidstypisk kursskifte: Ind med 80'er-lydende synths og en holistisk bevidsthed, der understreger at menneske og natur hænger sammen. Der er stærke sange strøet ud over albummet, der dog lyrisk savner specificitet og sine steder er lidt for blegt i sin musikalske indpakning".

"Best New Music" - "Alynda Segarra's powerful eighth album exudes a glorious irreverence. Their self-described "nature punk" songs are both intimate and immense, and they've never sounded more honest or self-possessed".

"Segarra's determination to write about the people and perils of 2022 - "Precious Cargo" ends with a chant against ICE, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement - places them firmly within the tradition of the Clash, not to mention Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, and Woody Guthrie. By melding that tradition with a fashion-forward sound that suits their time, Segarra has wound up with a distinctive album, one that operates equally skillfully on an emotional and intellectual level".
