"Like virtually every other Yo La Tengo album, Riot finds the veteran trio striving to make the guitar band sound like the high point of human civilisation, rather than a vehicle for rebelliousness. It is, however, a departure for them. Largely improvised, often meditative, these 15 tracks find Georgia Hubley often taking the lead on guitar, offering up ambient passages".

"Yo La Tengo are still the critic's favourite band with maybe too much of a thing for a Three Dog Night cover but, with a little tweak here and a gentle push there, here is proof there's nothing wrong with that. Nothing wrong with that at all".
