So far Planetarium is seeing love from all around the world:
“A far-flung opus that jetpacks from piano balladry, to Auto-Tuned fantasias, to bizzaro EDM, with Stevens wailing about an entire constellation of Roman and Greek gods, from which the planets got their names, throughout.” – Pitchfork
“distinctive and powerful” – Paste Magazine
“Ambitious and immense” – Salon
