TV en français

"Despite the presence of ex-Razorlight man Andy Burrows on drums and extra songwriting oomph, their latest offering feels like another exercise in anonymity. 'Courage' - basically The Walkmen doing the 'Everybody Hurts' guitar scales - and the passably blustery 'Make It Easy' get closest to causing ear twitches, but rather more evident than such flashes of musical character is the feeling that if it wasn't for the goodwill generated by their mildly amusing screen turns, the We Are Scientists experiment might have been over some time ago".

"Picking up where 2010's Barbara left off, We Are Scientists' fifth studio album, 2014's TV en Français, is a refreshing blast of power that finds the band further exploring their own brand of melodic guitar-based songcraft. If Barbara saw the duo of Keith Murray and Chris Cain moving ever so slightly away from their previous frenetic take on '80s post-punk and toward a more harmony-driven style, then TV en Français is an even more classicist pop record".
