Puluche
The way in which Speaking in Tongues comes together as a whole is admirable from the onset. Even the cover art, which David Byrne designed himself, is a simple pattern on a yellow background that adds to the upbeat, enjoyable feel that the album conveys. Each song comes together through the quick-paced melodies even though the lyrics cover a range of topics. […]
Rolling Stone
Speaking in Tongues, Talking Heads‘ first studio release in three years, is the album that finally obliterates the thin line separating arty white pop music and deep black funk. […]
Stereogum
The tone of the record is shifting, without question Speaking In Tongues, but it’s their broadest and warmest, looking constantly for a way to worm in and “share the same space for a minute or two.” […]
