Critical reception

Luke Winkie of musicOMH wrote that "The album becomes more traditionalist and (un-coincidentally) more fun-loving around its middle...When Fan Death are clicking, they're a force to be reckoned with, the band's chemistry practically oozing from the songs."[2]

Garry Mulholland from the BBC wrote that Fan Death had "made a debut album that successfully adds up to more than the sum of its hip influences" and "will induce waves of pure pleasure in those of us who will never tire of a melancholy melody, a dodgy synthetic string motif and a disco beat."[3]

gollark: I suppose I'll have to add in this as a fallback thing... thanks.
gollark: Hmm. Well. I'd quite like to retain compatibility, so that's a bit irritating...
gollark: Does `write` in older versions accept a string too on binary files?
gollark: UPDATE: it works now since apparently I can still `readAll` and `write` strings in `wb`/`rb` mode for some reason.
gollark: I'm having some bizarre issues writing some binary data to files. I'll try and put together a bit of code to demonstrate this with, but basically it seems like `\13` bytes (carriage return) are being replaced with `\10` bytes (line feed). My code is using `"w"` and `"r"` modes instead of binary mode because according to the wiki binary mode doesn't let me use `readAll` and write a whole string; do I need binary mode and is there a way around reading/writing individual bytes for this?
