Billboard 200 - #35, 2017
"It only takes five seconds of Play Money to hear that the New Pornographers are back in full synth force ... it builds itself on a driving, almost frantic beat, Neko Case’s welcome vocals ... press play on this album to wrap yourself up in the New Pornographers’ harmonies and get lost in the lyrics while dancing wildly to these 11 new tracks ..."
- CBC Music
"Playing faster than ever before, the band's more aggressive (for them at least) sound is matched by darker lyrical themes ... the real standout, however, is the plethora of vocal hooks ... delivering some of the band's most memorable melodies ... they're firing on all cylinders ... working as one to deliver their most cohesive and one of their best albums to date."
- Exclaim!
"... nicely captures the New Pornographers' gift for stocking each song with three or four hooks where most bands might settle for one, maybe two ... doesn't bother duplicating what's come before it: its tracks at times evoke surprising depths of darkness, synths pop up more prominently than usual ... brash singalong choruses are swept aside in favour of songs that feel engineered to sneak up on listeners rather than conquer hearts at first blush ..."
- NPR
