it's the work of truly contemplative artists, meant to and successful at bringing back your most haunting and romantic memories: where you've traveled to, whom you met, and what else you've wasted your glorious life doing.

An album balanced in instrumental emphasis, steeped in ethereal singing and tangible substance, and epic in sonic stature.

This is electric music in every sense of the word-- amplified, processed, and imbued with a neon glow.

Citrus is screaming out to be loved, but with enough style and sophistication to avoid being a guilty pleasure.

The best songs come toward the middle, in a hallucinatory run from "New Years" through the long, feedback of "Red Sea." Here the band balances its pop and experimental sides carefully, slipping memorable melodies into blankets of fuzzy drone.

Citrus has its moments where it seems like a young band still getting their legs about them, but then there are other moments where they sound like a band ready to conquer the world.

The band has a reputation for having a rich, layered sound with angelic female vocals. On the latest album, Citrus, it's more of that rich, layered sound, but more polished, refined, swirly, and dreamy, something you cannot say about those previous bands, and even Asobi Seksu's previous debut release.
