before roan, berman and o'connor had formed a true band, they and some of the friends who had performed on their self-produced songs were being called a "hippie cliché" by such journals as nme. the band's debut lp "rewild" received a varied response from critics, and has failed to chart. they have been criticized for being known more for their sense of fashion and connections to popular bands than for their musical talent, the "spin" reviewer wrote, "channeling glam, metal, punk, power pop, and experimental noise, "rewild" is like a tour through a psychedelic fantasyland, featuring visions, hallucinations, and glimpses of death. roan coaxes with an almost deliriously euphoric art-rock swagger (see reggae jam "roverfrenz" and infectious chant-along "smoke bros"), while o'connor infuses every track with hedonistic energy. " "rolling stone" when describing amazing baby wrote, "on their stunning debut album rewild (out this month), amazing baby deliver tunes that are at times thoroughly vintage and refreshingly futuristic: "the narwhal" sounds like led zeppelin at their druggiest and most mystical; "invisible place" soars and swoops like pink floyd's "echoes" and "kankra" builds into such an anthemic frenzy, you'll be oozing serotonin for days. the crew also have a wonky sense of humor, especially on tunes like the scuzzed-out jam "smoke bros," which features stoner-appropriate ruminations like "she protects her animals/ we are starving cannibals." . while reviewer christian hoard wrote, "on their debut, the quintet spread the arty cheez whiz like mgmt and yeasayer while bringing a stronger sixties-pop influence, specifically with swirling keyboards with melodies that recall love and the dave clark five. "roverfrenz," an airy synth fantasia with animal collective-ish percussion, gets by on neato textures instead of sharp tunes. in general, "rewild" could use a little more of the latter, but who has time for that when you're knee-deep in giant guitars and weird ambient vocalizations?" amazing baby got a lot of buzz, it seemed people were jealous or angry that these kids could grow so fast and become so popular while not exactly doing things "by the book". pitchfork wrote, "coming straight out of wesleyan to score a ton of sxsw buzz, bro-ing down with mgmt, getting breathless future-of-the-scene press from interview and rolling stone and the guardian, strutting around in 1971 cosplay while rolling their eyes at journalists..."
