Critical Reception

Jonny Nail of the Rolling Stones said , 'Attune is a remarkable rabbit-warren of an album, sucking us in with its seemingly shallow light-pop accessibility and then keeping us captivated with the underlying darkness and thought-provoking themes that bubble to the surface with little warning throughout. ' Lenka was complimented for her invigoration and significant messages of the songs in Attune.
