Praise for High Places:
“Intriguing, enigmatic and one of a kind” – Uncut

“… it works magnificently: the orchestral swell of Drift Slayer is among the most gorgeous things you’ll hear this year… High Places have moved on, positioning themselves on the fringes of the ongoing chillwave explosion with enough invention to outlast most of its central protagonists” – BBC
“Single handedly claiming the whole notion of lo-fi as their own sound. High Places don’t so much play and they float.” – Clash
