'Collaborating with Dave Fridmann, a producer who made his reputation through his work with neo-psychedelic bands Mercury Rev and the Flaming Lips, Finn luxuriates within the fathomless spaciness of Dizzy Heights... every electromagnetic throb and aural shard is in its right place, heightening the overall effect and, occasionally, distracting from the typically finely constructed tunes. Underneath the aural lava lamp, Finn is taking compositional risks, too: the title track is underpinned with smooth soul, 'Divebomber' unfurls into an ominous march, and 'White Lies and Alibis' has a tension within its structure in addition to its skittering, skeletal production. Finn still turns out strong pop songs as expected -- 'Flying in the Face of Love,' 'Pony Ride,' and 'Recluse' -- but the Fridmann production keeps them lively and surprising, which is the key to Dizzy Heights: it is a seamless blend of Finn's longstanding popcraft and latter-day adventure, and it satisfies on both counts.' - All Music
