“In between harmonious choruses, R&B-esque verses and angelic sighs, it all just seems so effortless for her, a true indication of a girl with talent.” ~ Indie Shuffle

“If you listen to her debut The Love Club, though, you’ll notice that this isn’t a one-trick gimmick. Those deep swoops of melody and souped up bass drums that sound like they’ve been parsed through a bitcrusher are noticeable on every single track.” ~ One A Day

“A collection that sounds utterly contemporary while commenting on the moment with clear eyes” ~ Pigeons and Planes

“Everything about Lorde’s five-track debut EP oozes class” ~ NZ Herald
