"[Mass Suicide Occult Figurines is] an inventive gem that ranges easily from the synthesizer-infused layers of "Confusion Boats" to the spare voice-and-piano musings of "Gruesome Details" without breaking a sweat. Ambient backgrounds blend with tidy spates of guitar distortion and sly, smart choruses, imbuing even the notorious "Bill Gates Must Die" with a sense of purpose that matches its playful chutzpah. "Mass Suicide Occult Figurines" shows how far indie-rock conventions can be warped without losing their edge." (San Francisco Chronicle)
