    As musically un-diverse as it may be, how cynical and jaded you would have to be to take against it. Tennis’ music is not intended to push at vanguards, but to make you happy.

    The revamping of style and substance on Yours Conditionally is also something special, helping it to become the best record they've made so far.

    The tone is certainly slow dances at twilight, but given a shimmer by the understated elegance of Moore’s voice, something that has always sound fragile but defiant at the same time.

    If you're paying attention, there's a minor treasure at hand. Ease on in.

    Yours Conditionally is much more fun when you allow yourself to dive headfirst into its strife and inhale its sarcasm rather than floating along its serene surface.

    True to form, Yours Conditionally reveals its charms in reassuring and unassuming ways, through unspectacular but steady osmosis of a mellow high.

    They've returned with a refocused sound closer to '70s singer-songwriter fare from Carole King and Fleetwood Mac, a sound that supports Moore's thoughtful lyrics.

    This self-produced fourth still has many charms. [Apr 2017, p.39]

    While the album is largely content to reside in familiar, unchallenging territory, however, it is also a lean and well-crafted set of pop songs with more bite than it lets on.

    Despite the lyrical punch, Yours Conditionally is hamstrung by Tennis’ drums. The keys and bass on the album are unfailingly warm, but the shabby percussion is one-note, almost the work of a different band.

    Lovely album from Tennis. My only beef is that their live show is so much more energetic and the songs much more powerful. Several gems --Lovely album from Tennis. My only beef is that their live show is so much more energetic and the songs much more powerful. Several gems -- In the Morning I'll be Better, Fields of Blue, Modern Woman among the best.
