“‘A New Place 2 Drown’ evokes a septic world filled with flickering halogen bulbs, sticky synth keys, and corroded outputs. Marshall has made tremendous strides as a producer, gorgeously reproducing the gloom and loneliness of early ‘90s hip-hop and finding a way to integrate it into his own style.” - Pitchfork
“The album’s restrained, nuanced intelligence is a testament to Marshall’s pure talent and compelling persona” - SPIN
“Leisurely, immersive, strange and powerful” - The Guardian
