“…’Meet Me At The Pictures’ is a strong reminder that we should have all bought their debut album, The Sound That I Still Hear.
In this song, we have a plaintive piano-led song. Like many of their songs, the lyrics are very poetic and the twinkling instrumentation adds even more art to their sound.
‘Paper Lanterns’ backs the single, with a shift of focus from the vocal onto the instruments.
The single is release on 28th March 2010 and you can catch the band at the Duke Of York Cinema (the very cinema mentioned in the song) on 20th March at 11pm.” - www.the-mag.me.uk
“‘In The Script’ is the second single taken from their debut album ‘The Sound That I Still Hear’. It’s a bold but gorgeous well honed track that has spine tingling qualities. It’s refreshing to hear such pure music that for a change doesn’t rely on distortion and a megalomaniac for a front man to get the message across, not that I think there’s anything wrong with that it’s just tiresome when every Tom, Dick and Harry has the same vision.
‘In The Script’ is anything but a soft touch though it still manages the rawness that is needed but it’s put across in a different way. The drumming is creatively disjointed as are the many decedent melodies that are layered on a knife edge, never completely seeming to repeat themselves but somehow invitingly similar. Vocals are the icing on the cake too, stuck somewhere between Thom Yorke and the chubby one from Keane they are quite mesmerising at times offering a very pleasant listen.”
“…New single ‘In The Script’ nods to John Fogerty in lyric but forges its own path of semi-folk pop with up-tempo beat employing more key changes than a Westlife CD, but the discourse that risks its easy-listening credentials succeeds in exposing the band’s strengths, particularly agile guitar work…”

“The stellar chime pop instincts of the Sundays, the careering melodic disjointedness of the Go-Betweens, the sadcore sophistication of Red House Painters all in one band? Truly. Brighton’s The Mojo Fins are a remarkable proposition, and this is a desert island disc of a debut.”
9/10 - Rock Sound Magazine
“Radio friendly and well adjusted… Gentle hearts thrum against delicate cartilage, soundtracky tracks sound hi-polish.”
Plan B Magazine
“The Mojo Fins are a very fine proposition indeed… gorgeous melodies abound and the widescreen wistfulness should see them clean up amongst those who enjoy a nice tune… sometimes you just don’t need ’edgy’.”
“spellbinding harmonies run over their constantly pleasing blend of pop/rock and laid back acoustic work. New single ‘Always Now’ is an absolute pearl and latter tracks ‘Final Correspondence’ and the brilliantly performed ‘Trick of the Light’ will no doubt bring the band to stereos nationwide.”
- Joe Ward - www.subba-cultcha.com
“Shimmering, soaring sound and heartwarming vocals. The harmonies are sublime, the lyrics unforgettable.”
