Reviews3 Stars Out of 5 -- "With Dystopian Beats, Dark Electronics and Distorted Guitars...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "Pitching the standard-issue walls of guitar noise onto digital beats and swooning melodies, tracks such as 'Velvet' evoke LOVELESS-era My Bloody Valentine...", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Big Pink -- multi-instrumentalists Robbie Furze and Milo Cordell -- nail the balance between gloomy, monolithic drone and songcraft.", Ranked #25 in Spin's "40 Best Albums Of 2009" -- "With fuzzy wall-of-sound guitars, half-speed electronic dance beats, and darkly romantic pleas.", "Part psychedelic, part edgy and part soft, gleaming vocals with harmonies as smooth as a low tide, the Big Pink's A BRIEF HISTORY OF LOVE feels anything but brief."
Additional InformationLondon duo's debut in 2009 is a latter-day edition to the still growing canon of shoegaze (but with electro twist).
