Some kind praise for All Night…
“All Night the Calls Came In may be the first time since their electronic-leaning self-titled debut that the band has exhibited such exquisite control over their signature sound.” – Audio Suede
“Halloween, Alaska may be a mythical town, but on the strength of All Night the Calls Came In, it’s one you’ll want to visit often.” – All Music
“Halloween, Alaska have devised this album as a complete picture, rather than just a bunch of, admittedly excellent, tracks. As such its rises and dips in mood and sonic texture are entirely well thought out and satisfying.” – Americana UK.
