    The band finishes off the album by following "Cinnamon Temple" with a raucous remake of Jefferson Airplane's "White Rabbit" that shoves the acid rock classic in front of a fun house mirror. Increased chaos and whimsy only heightens Hiatus Kaiyote's ability to enchant and exhilarate.

    Arrangements shift almost entirely between verses, and a dense, psychedelic mix feat. hyperkinetic panning makes you turn up that Mario Caldato Jr. goodness and just lose yourself in the noise only to find yourself being pummelled by Love Heart Cheat Code's final brace of tracks.

    A gorgeous microcosm of sound, Love Heart Cheat Code is a perfect accompaniment for hazy summer days and nights.

    Their talent for maximalism is evident on the jagged, urgent Cinnamon Temple and a wonderfully trippy inversion of Jefferson Airplane's White Rabbit. [Aug 2024, p.90]

    When Love Heart breaks the feedback loop of its own foundational creation is where the record is at its most compelling.

    A playful tribute to a beloved feline titled “Longcat” are signs that Hiatus Kaiyote don’t take themselves too seriously. And we shouldn’t either. But, dotted as it is with obvious references to The Wizard of Oz and Alice in Wonderland, the self-indulgent Love Heart Cheat Code can’t help but register as Psychedelia for Dummies.
