"... there's a thread of fevered, vaguely political idealism that runs through the album. That hook, however, is no match for the music itself, in which the gravelly bombast of Roberts' vocal (...) is nicely supplemented by Hoorn's heavily accented near-monotone, over a mix of electronics and emotional goth-rock. It's a combination that is gratifyingly peculiar and, thanks to a knack for satisfying toplines, holds a significant amount of jubilant appeal".

"Spiritual Songs is not a casual listen and can be emotionally overwhelming at times, requiring complete attention in order to fully enter the intimate world of these star-crossed lovers. Once inside, Spiritual Songs for Lovers to Sing is as intoxicating as falling in love for the first or last time".

"Former WU LYF frontman Ellery Roberts returns with LUH, his new project with visual artist Ebony Hoorn. Produced by the Haxan Cloak, their debut is a vast, swaggering colossus".
