Nature noir

"Musikalsk trækkes der igen veksler på fortidens sortrandede rockmusikalske ikoner som The Velvet Underground og The Jesus and Mary Chain samt slut-80'ernes/start-90'ernes britiske, rumklangsliderlige shoegaze-grupper. Kvintetten formår dog at forvalte denne tunge arv både overbevisende, respektfuldt og frem for alt med en snert af et personligt islæt, hvilket adskiller dem fra mængden af upersonlige plagiater".

"The heart that Haggart seeks is beating somewhere in the past, but the Stilts' ennui is now less of a listening experience and more of an chin-scratching observation in gallery of retro ideas. You nod because you catch the reference, and you move on to the next room. Nature Noir is nothing if not a well-crafted, whip-smart record, but it leaves me yearning for the days when the Stilts would put passion into trying to find the pulse".
