From Aside Beside's 2014 album review by Leks Maltby:
"The music of Daydream Machine is exactly what it claims to be: a factory of imagination, an industry of cool.
"Conceived of by musical mastermind Jason Adams in a Portland, Oregon basement, the band draws upon such disparate influences that it becomes impossible to untangle them at times.
"Instantly the band's name recalls Sonic Youth's seminal album Daydream Nation; however, the songs found here recall the work of such varied groups as The Cure, New Order, and even Bowie at times.
"Twin Idols is as earnest and authentic an indie rock effort as one could possibly hope for in the year 2014, especially given that the "genre," if one can even call it that, has become so inundated with frauds, imposters, and saboteurs of every stripe that it no longer can recognize its own face in the mirror at the end of the night."
