    East India Youth: Press For 'Total Strife Forever'

    "'TOTAL STRIFE FOREVER' is an astonishingly bold and inventive record. It's no exaggeration to suggest that this is the first potentially great album of 2014" - Clash Magazine, 9/10

    "A genuinely ambitious statement from intent from an artist who clearly has no qualms whatsoever about blurring genre boundaries." - Loud & Quiet, 8/10

    "Hurtling between cerebral electronica, vulnerable pop and gonzoid techno, it locates a broken but still-beating heart within metallic machine music. East India Youth's debut is a triumph." - Mojo, 4/5, and Mojo Rising feature

    "Doyle's dizzying arpeggios inspire a sense of awe. In synth-pop, his debut is as good as it gets." - Q Magazine, 4/5

    "What really sets 'TOTAL STRIFE FOREVER' apart is Doyle's vocal ability. An impressively ambitious debut." - Record Collector, 4/5

    "East India Youth's debut is abrasive, complicated and demanding, ambitious and absorbing, and still probably only a glimpse of what Doyle is capable of." - The Fly, 3.5/5

    "A volume of brutally cold, industrial, electronic schizophrenia that's as bleak as you'd expect from the title. I love this record." - Vice, 10/10, Album of The Month

    "A hugely self-assured debut from an artist who knows exactly what he's doing, confident enough to leap from out-and-out pop to icy ambience to pounding acid house to unsettling experimentation, marking Doyle out as a rare, idiosyncratic talent." - The Guardian, Breakthrough of 2014

    "Rarely has so much anticipation been invested in a debut, but 'TOTAL STRIFE FOREVER' could be good enough to define the next year" - This is Fake DIY

    "A richly impressive debut, which sounds like the great lost album that Brian Wilson, Eno and Bjork should have made together. A major new British talent is born ." - Uncut, 9/10
