"Ex Cops' sophomore LP is an alt-rock album with a pathological eagerness to please, so naturally, it involves... Ariel Pink and Billy Corgan? The former makes a guest appearance, the latter serves as a co-writer and executive producer, and what's even crazier is that neither is the most contentious artist connected with this thing. That would be Ex Cops' own Amalie Bruun".

"On Ex Cops' sophomore full-length album, 2014's Daggers, the duo of vocalist/instrumentalist Brian Harding and vocalist Amalie Bruun shade their '80s and '90s-influenced rock pastiche to an even finer, more subtle hue. As with the group's 2013 debut, True Hallucinations, Daggers showcases all of their very specific influences, from fuzz guitar-laden noise rock to dreamy shoegaze to buoyant and danceable new wave pop. However, rather than coming off as an endless checklist of name-the-influence, Daggers sounds more like a unified group sound where the influences merely give context to Ex Cops' production choices and melodic nods".
