Dirty Projectors’ new album ‘Bitte Orca’ is released this week. Here are some reviews…
Pitchfork - 9.2/10
Culture Bully “The best record of 2009 (so far)”
The Onion (AV Club) - rating: A
No ripcord - 9/10
Sputnik Music - 4.5/5
Aural States “This is clearly one for the best-of lists”
Drowned In Sound “Bitte Orca might be one of the greatest albums ever made by man or beast, or it would be if its sheer brilliance wasn’t in some ways slightly alienating.”
Stereogum ‘premature evaluation’, April 09 “A stunning album”
Blackplastic.co.uk “One of the most beautiful records in a long time”
I guess I’m floating real-time review “They take their sound to new heights and aren’t afraid to leap off the cliff while other acts simply stand at the edge, afraid of what lies below.”
Cokemachine glow - a grudging 78%
Consequence Of Sound “I’d be shocked if there were a better album to come out this year”
Audioholic Media “Check out this album now, before it tops all the “best-of” lists”
