Jul 21, 2014Though the magic and the mercury drop a degree in the second half, In Cold Blood remains refreshingly passionate with an appeal and allure which will surely draw you back for more.

May 23, 2014Plenty of other modern acts have gone for the gold with this type of powerhouse, '80s-inspired electro-pop, but Kibby's material feels more memorable and has the weight to back up the heavy production.

May 23, 2014Kibby's willingness to push boundaries makes In Cold Blood worth listening to—and, who knows, maybe one day its songs will make for some great karaoke.

May 23, 2014On first listen, Kibby’s stratospheric vocal style can reach overwrought territory, specifically with the frequent acceleration from ethereal to formidable. For In Cold Blood, however, this approach (and her resultant ability to convey strong emotions) infuses the album with a level of high drama that puts White Sea in the higher tiers of ’80s-worshipping synthpop outfits.
