“Electrocution (Bill Fox)” – Directed by Eli Stronberg
if i had a hi-fihas been receiving an early and very warm reception from fans and critics alike. “Admittedly,” wrote Alternative Press in a 4 of 5 star review, “cover albums are usually a contractual cop-out, but the diverse scope and amount of thought put into each track on if i had a hi-fi prevents it from sounding superfluous or self-indulgent.” MOJO described the album as “an organic detour down memory lane rather than an organized statement of their influences… …True, nothing fuses these disparate strands beyond some gorgeous tunes.”

“They successfully transform Depeche Mode’s ‘Enjoy The Silence’ into a power-pop anthem, while Matthew Caws’ plaintive take on Kate Bush’s ‘Love And Anger’ is as smart as the album’s palindromic title.”
