"It would have been nice if they had kept some of the bouncy pop sparkle of some of their early singles to give the album another dimension. It also would have been nice if they had cut the treacly ballad "If All She Has Is You," which sounds like it came in 14th place in 1984's Eurovision competition. These issues aside, Electric Youth's debut is a well-constructed, carefully thought-out debut that belies its long gestation process and will make people who fell in love with them thanks to the Drive soundtrack very happy in a melancholy kind of way".

"Amid a glut of 1980s-indebted electro-pop, Toronto duo Electric Youth stand apart. Their glacial compositions offer far more than Empire Of The Sun's empty gloss and M83's breezy epics. Vintage-synth fetishist Austin Garrick and singer Bronwyn Griffin emerged in 2011 with 'A Real Hero', the dreamy waltz that soundtracked Ryan Gosling's twilight cruising in Drive, and this debut album is inspired by films like David Cronenberg's sci-fi horror Videodrome".
