AllMusic[1]

A reviewer identified as the Barman from i94bar.com describes Radio Moscow as "an old-style power trio with an overload of psychedelic headspace, structured around guitarist Parker Griggs whose exemplary six-string work carves sonic holes."[2] He goes on to describe "The Great Escape of Lesilie Magnafuzz" as an album filled to the brim with "spiraling guitar lines and warm yet slightly disembodied Griggs vocals run through bubbling bass-lines and drumming that's all over the kit but firmly anchored to the floor."[3] While wrapping up his review, the Barman commends Radio Moscow for tapping into "a motherlode of bluesy, heavy but nimble psych", adding that it's "no wonder they've enjoyed the patronage of The Black Keys."[4]
