What “The People” are saying about Frankie Cosmos:

“Frankie Cosmos know how good it feels to acknowledge how epically, infuriatingly, beautifully helpless love can be.” [“Being Alive” Best New Track Review] - Pitchfork

“’Being Alive’ flutters like a heartbeat, careening in and out of heavy motion and rest.”
 [“Being Alive” Track Review] - Stereogum

“The song has Kline wandering through apathy, thinking about the things she could’ve done if she’d had the energy or will, poking at her subconscious.” [“Jesse” Track review] - Noisey

“Kline has a keen, quick grip on the back-and-forth of modern uncertainty, swinging high from triumph to low-lit sorrow. It’s why she’s such a comfort to return to.” - 8/10 - Crack

“[Kline’s] anti-folk spirit remains alive on these 18 tracks, which range from 30-second sonic haikus to fully-fledged ’90s indie-pop duets.” - 7/10  Loud and Quiet

“While intimacy has found a large pop audience in the social-media era […] Kline’s disclosures are striking because they feel genuinely homespun.” - 4/5  Q Magazine

“Slight but powerful indie-pop” / “There’s great charm to these yearning tunes” - 8/10 Uncut

“Completely enchanting, it’s further proof that the band are one of the best”  - Wonderland
