"Hooks take a backseat -- only the New Pornographers' "Think About Me" really pushes the power pop angle -- to eerie, dreamy textures, with the Lee Ranaldo Band and J Mascis setting a pitch-perfect keynote with "Albatross," even though it's hardly just guitars here. Tame Impala push "That's All for Everyone" onto waves of analog synths, MGMT give "Future Games" a considerable reworking, Gardens & Villa turn "Gypsy" into electro-pop, and Crystal Ark perform a similar trick with "Tusk," signaling the kind of imagination and depth that make Just Tell Me That You Want Me an unusually satisfying tribute album".

"The most divisive cover here is likely to be the closer, MGMT's Future Games. Originally an elegant slice of subtly swaying rock, lathered in rich organ tones, the (recently deceased) Bob Welch-written number is transformed into a buzzing and chiming, squelching and sloshing affair which melds fuses-blown psychedelia with alien transmissions from a distant star. Imagine Air covering The Flaming Lips covering Zappa covering Kraftwerk covering Fleetwood Mac' and that's the sound of your brain bursting".
