“With Fire-Toolz’s Angel Marcloid, Jasamine White-Gluz pumps her shoegazing fifth album full of more textures, more ambiance, more chunky ’90s guitar. It crushes like a giant box of Gushers” – Pitchfork
“From the soaring, dreamy ‘Bits’ and the lush alt-pop of ‘My Crud Princess’ to tripped out electronica of ‘Save the Lobsters’, Bugland is a seamless blend of these influences that feels authentic and creative to both artists. If that sounds awesome, that's because it is” – Bandcamp
“Bugland is better understood as an eternal core of pure, earnest pop, with stylistic tendons growing and evolving outwards” – the Quietus
“Shoegaze, hip-house, and a touch of screamo sprout together in Jasamine White-Gluz's surreal sonic garden, this time tended with collaborator Fire-Toolz” – Brooklyn Vegan
“White-Gluz colours outside the lines, blending electro heavy experimentation with organic elements” – Uncut
“It’s a kaleidoscopic album, with each song almost a symphony in its own right; the music swirling through tempo changes and instruments cascading through the canopy of the rhythmic foliage, and the vocals drifting, seeping into the mind of the listener” – Louder Than War
“The songs shift and derail in ways that feel natural and sometimes even weirdly familiar. It's a marvel of design and execution that registers mostly as activated, unrelenting noise pop, and invites listeners to discover something new and joyfully befuddling every time they listen back” – AllMusic
“A thoroughly invigorating listen for those wanting to relive the everything-but the-kitchen-sink nature of late ’90s alternative without all the gross parts. Seek out Bugland immediately if you were a Garbage fan back in the day” – Hearing Things “Bugland is a trip to the countryside like no other” – Exclaim
