reviews:

“(…) jest to muzyka świeża, żwawa, zabawna, napompowana życiem i utrzymująca piosenkowy, niezwykle melodyjny charakter.”
Grzegorz Bryk “Półka z winylami” [PL]
polkazwinylami.wordpress.com/2020/09/20/the-white-kites-devillusion-recenzja/

“This is a long record, fourteen tracks of catchy, purist tunesmithing, outside-the-box sonics and strange interludes, best appreciated as a cohesive whole.”
“New York Music Daily” [USA]
newyorkmusicdaily.wordpress.com/2020/09/27/thewhitekites/

“To krążek dla tych, którym przy nazwach takich jak Genesis, Jethro Tull, wczesnych Pink Floyd czy Soft Machine serce bije szybciej. Tych co uwielbiają gdy ciepły sound winyla buduje bajkowe światy, w których można się bez opamiętania zatopić. Po prostu świetna płyta The White Kites i miejmy tylko nadzieję, że na kolejną nie trzeba będzie czekać sześciu lat.”
8/10
“Magazyn Gitarzysta” [PL]

“Szczerze mówiąc, to nie spodziewałem się, żeby The White Kites mogli kiedykolwiek nagrać słabą płytę, ale chyba nie sądziłem, że zespół stworzy aż tak konsekwentną i przekonującą całość. “
Gabriel Koleński “Progrock.org.pl” [PL]

"The White Kites have been producing some of the best psychedelic pop of the last decade. (…) With gorgeous production and witty lyrics, pop-psych fans salute you."
Edward Rogers “The Strange Brew” [UK]
thestrangebrew.co.uk/october-2020-reviews/

"This is a great progressive album, ideal for fans of this kind of music as it evolved in the late 60s and from early to mid 70s.
Recommended!!"
George Markou "Gew-Gaw" [GR]

"Muzyka czerpiąca z mnóstwa źródeł, a jednak oryginalna, bajkowa. (...) To muzyka dla kochających rock z przełomu lat 60. i 70., i twórczą nim inspirację. No i światowa: bez "polskiego angielskiego", o dopieszczonym brzmieniu, podana w cieszącym oko digipacku"
4/5
Paweł Brzykcy "Teraz Rock" (11/2020) [PL]

“Bardzo długo trzeba było czekać na ten album, ale gdy w końcu się ukazał, z pełnym przekonaniem mogę stwierdzić, że było warto. Mamy tu dokładnie to, czego oczekuję od tego zespołu – luz, polot, humor, fajne melodie, proste, wpadające w ucho piosenki, ale też nieco psychodelii i szaleństwa. The White Kites to zjawisko na polskiej scenie muzycznej absolutnie wyjątkowe. Jeśli mają wydawać tak dobre płyty, to mogą je sobie nagrywać co pięć czy sześć lat – nie przeszkadza mi to.”
Jakub “Bizon” Michalski “Muzyczny zbawiciel świata” [PL]

It would be nice to select a track, but I love the whole album. The sound is like a pastoral and somewhat psychedelic sixties group but dragged kicking and screaming into 2020. My guess is that they would like to be back in the 60's when this sort of music flourished. The musicianship is superb with male and female vocals throughout. I only picked White Rabbit because it is the one people will know. Their version is great but their own compositions are fantastic too. mockturtle
