Album art"[Information] feels cohesive-a blended margarita of dazzling synth layers and Sumner's signature vocals, dreamily masculine and coolly compelling" -
Flaunt
"The husky vocals give ['Species'] a goth vibe, the analog synth sequencing provides a minimal wave foundation, shards of angular guitar tear through the refrain and the multi-tracked chorus is pure pop catharsis" - Idolator
"She's traded in the pop sensibilities of her youth for the darkness and worries of adulthood with excellent results" - Consequence of Sound
"It's engaging stuff that inspires you to move with an '80s-influenced beat" - Stereogum
"Eliot Sumner gives us the chills with her new track 'Firewood'" - Earmilk
"There's a newly minted swagger to her pop" - Noisey
"Eliot Sumner will have you dancing with new single 'After Dark'" - Billboard
"['Dead Arms & Dead Legs' is] a pretty huge pop song, with Sumner's androgynous alto sounding dusty and world-weary over a cloudy melody, anxious percussion, and-by song's end-a seasick swell of feedback" - The Fader
January 21, 2016 - Today, Eliot Sumner announced that she will be returning to North America this March for a select group of tour dates, including stops in Los Angeles, Chicago and Austin. Eliot's first full length album, Information, will be released on January 22nd via Interscope Records and is streaming now on Noisey - PRESS HERE to listen to the album in full and PRESS HERE to pre-order Information on iTunes today!
Eliot's talents as a songwriter and instrumentalist gained praise upon the release of four new songs last year - "Dead Arms & Dead Legs" , "After Dark" , "Firewood" and "Species" - all of which will appear on the album. Influences from Krautrock-inspired riffs to pulsing synth-pop rhythms paired with her signature alto are heard throughout the record. 2015 also marked Eliot's first North American tour with On An On in August and September followed by a European tour in November. In 2014, following the release of her first EP, Eliot joined Lykke Li as support on her European tour dates. The backstage antics of Eliot and her band were captured in a three-part behind the scenes documentary featured on i-D, "On the Road with Eliot Sumner and Lykke Li" - PRESS HERE to watch.
