"The age-old saying goes if something isn't broken, don't fix it, but the re-release of Twin Fantasy shows that, seven years later, Car Seat Headrest are capable of re-contextualizing their work in ways that cement the faith that we have in them as revolutionary musicians".

"Best new music" - "It's hard to know how the faithful who have been living with this album for half a decade will take its reinvention. Given the force of the music, the improved sonics give it greater weight, and the existence of two versions somehow makes the whole thing even more interesting-fading memory reflected and then re-assembled-and it's hard to hear this re-visit as anything but a triumph. Twin Fantasy is not a perfect record-the latter half is bogged down by soundscape-y passages and spoken word, for one thing-but that only validates it as a powerful document of teenaged pain and longing".

"Toledo is an intriguing figure: his 11th album is a rerecording of his sixth, given extra oomph and proper production now that Car Seat Headrest is a muscular, exciting, rock band, rather than only him making music in his bedroom. There are some changes - Nervous Young Inhumans has a new set of lyrics - but in the main, this is about pulling the album into sharper focus ... There are times when the less charitable might be inclined to shout at Toledo to pull himself together, but Car Seat Headrest increasingly feel like a significant band, and Toledo like an unusual and compelling voice".

"Car Seat Headrest besøger sig selv som håbløst forelsket og udstødt teenager. Ingen kan sætte guitarens strøm til den tilstand i dag som dem".

"Der er (...) ingen tvivl om, at det er den nye plade, som står stærkest. For der er en medrivende pondus over indspilningerne, som klæder såvel ordene som Toledos måde at synge dem på. Et sted synger han: »God, give me Frank Ocean's voice/and James Brown's stage presence«. Sådan går det ikke helt. For Car Seat Headrest er ikke soul eller funk. Bandet spiller (garage-) rock. Når det er sagt, kommer sangene til lytteren med store imødekommenhed, og man kan ikke lade være med at tænke på unikke rockgrupper som Pavement, The Strokes og Nirvana. Toledo og co. er ikke i samme liga. Men mindre kan gøre det i en tid, hvor ny rock har så svært ved at trænge igennem".
