Writer's Block
“Stockholm trio Peter Bjorn and John branch out on their latest LP, exploring everything from lo-fi 1980s electronics and shoegaze guitars to slacker beats and icy dreamscapes. The result is their most focused and fully realized album yet, and one of the better pop albums we've heard this year.”

Gimme Some

But Peter Bjorn and John’s sixth disc is pretty mannish, a foray into Seventies English punk rock, early U2 and R.E.M. anthemics, arena-drum bombast and a cowbell-happy jam […]”
