    Nothing wrong with clearly highlighting your influences, although you do run the risk of reminding listeners why said influences are better.

    It's cinematic, dramatic, and has vocals so indistinct that Tamaryn (the singer whose band this is) could just be coo-ing "turn up the smoke machine" over and over again.

    Tender New Signs is full of cracking tunes that help avoid the formlessness that effects-laden atmo-pop often slumps into. [Dec 2012, p.113]

    On the whole, Tender Signs struggles to get beyond the level of an immersive period piece.
