It's only been a few months since the release of the self-titles debut from Montreal-based band Clues, but great reviews of the album have been coming in left and right.

"On their startling, intricate debut, Montreal's Clues enter the alternate universe of the Flaming Lips for a blast of contemporary underground pop driven by angular arrangements and gritty noise. Sudden and unexpected, Clues lead listeners on in a glorious way."
- EXCLAIM

"The LP sparkles...From start to finish, Clues packs in surprises...' In The Dream' is delightfully unsettling and mysterious, and 'Perfect Fit' is a mini schizophrenic symphony with constantly changing tempos."
- NPR

"But in my mind this is one of the most important albums of the decade and demands the attention of anyone who is remotely interested in music. 10.0"
- WELISTENFORYOU (First-ever 10.0 rating!)

"Each track on Clues presents something new and different, ever-shifting slightly in tone and style: bespoke and hand-wrought with emphatic care, yet each bearing the unmistakable loops and whorls of their gifted craftsmen."
- SUBBA-CULTCHA

"Clues can do no wrong. Their eponymous album is a reflection of just that, their ability to create a palette of music that is reminiscent of early Unicorns, employing abrupt changes in a mosaic of instrumentation. Much of Clues album is like throwing a rhythmic gymnast into North Korea's Demilitarized Zone. Several moments consist of elegant leaps and graceful spins but ultimately there is satisfaction to be found in the rain of bloody mist that ensues after a tragic misstep."
