Entertainment Weekly - p.72
"Cosentino perfectly captures the mythic California of backlit palm-tree postcards....But she also makes California's scuzzier side seem romantic..." -- Grade: A-
Uncut - p.69
"[I]ndie pop infused with the melodrama of The Ronettes and The Shangri-Las."
Alternative Press - p.78
4 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he record is sophisticated....THE ONLY PLACE mainly focuses on mid-tempo mood pieces: torchy ballads, wholesome '50s-rock, PET SOUNDS-esque shimmer-pop and and twangy indie..."
Magnet - p.54
"Produced by Jon Brion, THE ONLY PLACE forgoes fuzz and focuses on Cosentino's charming, forlorn vocals, chic and clean garage riffs, and retro-fabulous grooves."
Kerrang (Magazine) - p.53
"BC's second album fizzes with both upbeat hymns to fun in the sun and achingly sad odes to lost love."
Q (Magazine) - p.97
3 stars out of 5 -- "This second album ditches the distortion in favour of cleaner textures....There's no denying THE ONLY PLACE's indomitable West Coast pop-rock melodies and sugary thrills."
Mojo (Publisher) - p.83
3 stars out of 5 -- "THE ONLY PLACE has sharper edges than the blurry Polaroid vibe of 2010's debut CRAZY FOR YOU, both musically and emotionally..."
