Alt-J Relaxer [Digipak]

3 stars out of 5 -- "The U.K. art rockers have a nice time messing with history -- their 'House of the Rising Sun' is a minimalist chamber rumble, with singer-guitarist Joe Newman adding his own poetry to the original."
4 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he playful, inventive musicality that saw songs like 'Fitzpleasure' become live favourites is intact. 'Hit Me Like That Snare' is that moment, with its punk-cut drumming, layers of distortion and vocal origami folds from frontman Joe Newman."
Paste (magazine) - "The trio's signature, folktronic sound is placed on the backburner, and what leads is a mix of redolent, cabin-fever creations -- hymnal, with a touch of pastoral."
