What the press is saying about The Blow:

“I can’t stop listening to The Blow’s new self-titled album. Over and over again, the record plays in my car, in my ear buds and on my home speakers, usually cranked to 11. Here’s one of my favorite cuts from the record, called “Make It Up.”” Bob Boilen / NPR

“A yearning desire to make love work has been a recurring theme in The Blow’s music. Though this time around they’re concretely composed between an actual couple, and are thus more honestly endearing.” CMJ

“The Blow hopscotches through doubts and fears and mushy lovestuff much like its predecessors, rarely skipping boxes or treading out of bounds. Once again, Maricich’s coy lyricism is littered with bite-sized, memorable quips.” PITCHFORK

“Plinky synth-pop that hides its own smarts” “Cheap and bloodless electronic pop is too easy to imitate and score points with these days. Someone’s been studying how to transcend that problem; this album is always both intelligent and sentimental.” NY TIMES
