CRITIC REVIEWS

80
Consequence of Sound

Jinx is no trick; it’s a treat. It’s concise and claustrophobic, yet expansive in its emotional and instrumental breadth.

70
PopMatters

Weekend follows in venerable footsteps. Jinx advances the progress evident already in Red and Sports, and avoids whatever sophomore slump its title may suggest.

70
No Ripcord

With Jinx ... we get to see a promising band push their sound outward and gracefully mature, even if it doesn’t always floor you as immediately as some of Sports’ loudest moment do.

69
Pitchfork

Moving away from the more varied songcraft that speckled the record's earlier tracks, Jinx eventually resigns itself to a pillowy darkness that, while not unpleasant, feels safe and flat.
