CRITIC REVIEWS

91
A.V. Club

More dynamics, more extremes, more shades of light and dark, of melody and atonality: Forever Becoming embraces all of it, as well as its own newfound, euphoric renewal.

80
AllMusic

It seems the change in membership has reinvigorated them, providing their songs with a sense of stability that shines through on an album that easily ranks as some of the band's most exciting work in recent years.

70
Consequence of Sound

Pelican deliver an album that shows little of the rust that should come with a four-year absence and the loss of a key component of their core.

60
The Line of Best Fit

Pelican continue to mine the same well of inspiration – and do so very adeptly – but at times it lags and lacks the kind of inventiveness that this genre at its best can deliver.
