“While some tracks on this surprisingly minimal Blonde Readhead album are great, others feel like the famed indie pop trio just isn't trying, like, at all.”
“Blonde Redhead's first album in four years finds the NYC avant-rock veterans following down the same path they started on with 2010's Penny Sparkle. Calling Barragán halfhearted would be giving it too much credit, both effort-wise and emotion-wise: it’s a cold fish of a record, dead-eyed and clammy.”
