"Befitting a guy best known for crafting a vibe, one can sense these songs are emotive and heartfelt. But close reading for confirmation shows thoughts that may have once conveyed relatable feelings forced against their will to become lyrics, i.e., "Let's awaken and turn on our minds/ No one is waiting for you in this line." Either that or the persistent indifference tipped by the title of What For? becomes maddening whenever Bundick soft-sells waffles like, "It's whatever you want to do" or, subsequently, "What is it you want to do?" So when he pleads, "do I need to spell it out," the answer is actually, "well, yes." ... The problem isn't that Bundick avoids confrontation or confession-most people do. But What For? is so passive it leaves your system the moment you're done with it".

"Vurdering: C" - "Unlike other '70s throwback acts, Toro y Moi lacks the cheeky charisma of an artist like Mac DeMarco or the shock value of Ariel Pink's demented lo-fi. What For?, Bundick's most recent foray into silky, nostalgic pop, hardly works toward dissolving that issue. It's an unproductive shrug of an album that can be charming and pleasant if you don't think too hard about it. But it's also frustratingly devoid of new or interesting ideas, a hole that Bundick attempts to plug with his knack for catchy melodies and infectious grooves".
