Last Night Something Happened Monster Movie

“Following up their debut EP with an equally worthy full-length, this demonstrates both their roots and their sense of trying to play around as well. If it was just Slowdive redux, there’d be no real point, but right from the fantastic start things are going well. Christian Savill’s vocals, in comparison to, say, Neil Halstead’s, are lighter, more open, and winsome rather than quietly whispery or reflective. Set against the melancholy flow of delayed guitar, pianos, and more, it makes for an attractive contrast, not lost in the music but not completely standing apart from it either. The implicit drama in many of Slowdive’s songs is hinted at here, but more than often the feeling is less that and more textural touches for their own sake” - Ned Raggett, AllMusic
