“It’s good to be a Sharp Things fan.” — The Big Takeover

“Galapagos is eye-opening in seizing Perry Serpa’s sprawling, elaborate, delectable collective’s dynamism. It sure makes you wish you were there!”

“Attains the same rarified air as Green is Good, like a unified double LP—so far. Just fabulous, again!” — The Big Takeover

“One of the more intriguing releases in quite some time…seamlessly stitches together dozens of different influences into a cohesive quilt of modern pop…not a bum track out of ten!”
— Pop That Goes Crunch!

“The lush arrangements of “Through with Love” features orchestrations from the 40-piece New York Symphonic Arts Ensemble—the horn and string-laden single is Broadway meets Brooklyn with a musical narrative fit for the stage or silver screen. Careful, or you may just break out into song and dance yourself.” —SPIN.com

“A beautifully-conceived album written with skill and imagination and executed with considerable aplomb. With Foxes and Hounds The Sharp Things are surely in the hunt.” —Whisperin and Hollerin

“Gorgeous opener “I Will Always Be Swimming In This Sea” is Prince, Mercury Rev and Sgt Pepper-era Beatles, the epic “Vacationing” is Tom Waits, Todd Rundgren and even a little bit Coldplay, and the pained, soaring “Precious” is the Bad Seeds meets Philly soul with Talk Talk’s Mark Hollis on vocals. Delightful, the lot of it.” —NME
