3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Sweaty and urgent, SOUND KAPITAL is a snapshot of a dark world with hard-fought glimmers of euphoria.", 3 stars out of 5 -- "Anthemic synth riffs and Boeckner's punky vocals speak a universal pop language...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "Practically seamless in execution, the worldly SOUND KAPITAL reaches its peak with the anthemic 'Repatriated,' an upbeat track ready for dance floors from Brooklyn to Bangkok.", "This is Handsome Furs' most passionate, committed album to date....Handsome Furs present themselves as a genuine, ready-for-the-floor synth-pop band...", "It Goes Down Smoothly and Will Keep Your Toes Tapping until the Very Last Beat.", "They're Urban Anthropologist, Studying and Blending the Music of Third-World Centers."
