CRITIC REVIEWS

AllMusic

Without a weak song on board, Bosnian Rainbows is a daring, excellent debut that is as compelling as it is ambitious.

NME

Rather than use his booster-pack of creative freedom to go even further towards the asylum, ‘Bosnian Rainbows’ finds Omar in controlled, more conventional territory than he has been in a while.

Paste

Bosnian Rainbows reins in some of Rodriguez-Lopez’s wiry guitar splatter, opting for buzzy new wave synths and soft-focus drums. The results are mixed. With the exception of a few songs, the album tends to fade into the massive sea of post-rock and new wave revivalists.

70
Consequence of Sound

Bosnian Rainbows finds a new band of old friends at a dusty intersection where every direction’s a solid and amicable choice.

A.V. Club

Bosnian Rainbows combines a lot of elements together, but it sometimes feels that they’re not sure which way they want to go.

Cool kinda like emo-punk-pop album. Unexpected that this kinda a semi Mars volta side project, but for what it was its fun and had a nice sound to it. Not as interesting as I thought I'd like it to be, but that might just require a relisten tbh cus there was a lot of cool moments on here.

The s/t album from Bosnian Rainbows has great alt rock and psych rock even if some of the more indie rock tracks in the middle of the album don't work as well as the more lenghty and epic tracks.
