Great reviews so far:

5/6 in Aftenposten:

“Tommy Lorange Ottosen had a well deserved breakthrough on his debut album, Smear your smiles back on.

His mix of bubbling creativity, melodic flair and characteristic vocals proved infectiously fascinating. And this lush rock landscape continues. At times as rich americana with hints of Arcade Fire, at times with a sharper and more English tint. Always with a strong melody in front, superseded by minimalistic arrangements or dramatic turns. Tommy sings vividly about a range of topics: religion, friendship, Ritalin, family and music critics. His dynamic will to follow his own musical choices is his biggest strength. This is Rock and Roll for both voice and mind.”

5/6 in VG:

“The interesting and existencial bits from the debut album have now been followed through to their outermost potential. Especially the slightly wierd moments, minimally arranged with piano, drums and vocal. And it really works!”

5/6 in Fredrikstad Blad:

“To follow the great debut «Smear Your Smiles Back On» is not an easy task. But Tommy Tokyo & Starving For My Gravy succeeds without question on «Go Time, Showtime & Absolute War».”

5/6 in Hamar Arbeiderblad:

“Go time, showtime & absolute war” is is filled to the brim with creativity. It proves they are a band not afraid to stray from the common path.”

5/6 in Haugesunds Avis:

“The music is dramatic and at times theatrical. The mood of the album can be compared to Susanne Sundførs «The Brothel» –ambitious and full of character.”

5/6 in Romerikes Blad:

“Melodic, dramatic and very entertaining.”

5/6 in Telemarksavisa:

“Tommy Tokyo is more melancholic than ever on his new album. It definitely suits him.”

9/10 from Musikknyheter.no:

“Tommy Tokyo & Starving For My Gravy’s difficult masterpiece”
