Shoegaze ist die Kunst des Dröhnens, doch „Everything Is Alive“ setzt diese Elemente nur sparsam ein. Statt Hall- und Zerr-Sounds aufzutürmen, schäumt die Musik in feinen Bläschen über.

Meishi Smile's 2nd full-length offers several shades of synth-laden exuberance, blurring '80s sheen with darker pop. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 6, 2015
I created my Bandcamp account just to have this album.
I really fell in love with this band. The album is ridiculously good, and very well done from start to finish. The girls manage to create an enveloping atmosphere with very rich and exhilarating textures. I particularly appreciate the singularity of Anastasia Velikaya's drumming. elvee
