"With their first new album in almost four years, they are exploring new directions. There are still reminders of good-time 60s garage pop, as on the stomping Rom Say Sok, but Tokay and Deepest Lake on the Planet are easy-going, atmospheric pieces, while Still Waters Run Deep shifts from furious chanting to a jazzy horn workout. It's a fine set of songs that should sound even better live".

"[The Deepest Lake] offers their trademark blend of vintage Cambodian pop and US West Coast rock, only more so. Singer Chhom Nimol's haunting Cambodian tones remain centre-stage and the rest of the band creates sounds by turns snappy and dreamy, with the Farfisa organ of co-founder Ethan Holtzman and guitar of his brother Zac, to the fore, alongside brawny brass of various kinds provided by David Ralicke, plus the new addition of some African-style percussion here and there ... The tracks are longer this time round (...) and there's a sense of musical experimentation throughout. But never at the expense of the band's roots pop sensibility".
