"Synchronised Swimmers"
Contrary to what the album cover and sleeve would have you believe, Synchronised Swimmers is as straightforward and un-quirky as they come. It is pure acoustic pop, uncomplicated and simple, with not even a semblance of divergence, although some hints at depth appear towards the end (I Almost Know A Criminal, Robot Robot). I can understand the value of upbeat music, but this album is so infuriatingly brainless it’s impossible to even attach a mood to it, other than one attained by a Brady Bunch member on Prozac. It is even useless as a remedy to holiday depression, by way of overcompensation; if depression hasn’t killed you yet, this album will make you want to kill yourself through its abject, stupefying idiocy."Synchronised Swimmers"

Icelandic Rock Star/Idols jury member Bubbi Morthens didn't like the review & wrote something nasty on his FaceBook page about Björk's son Sindri:
„Hann getur ekki spilað á bassa skammlaust og í staðinn reynir hann að hefja sig upp í sól móður sinnar með drullu um fólk sem hefur hæfileika sem sannarlega hann hefur ekki sem tónlistarmaður.“ Móðir Sindra er að sjálfsögðu Björk Guðmundsdóttir.
Hafdís Huld wrote: „Takk Bubbi minn, gott að finna stuðning frá fólki sem veit um hvað það er að tala.“
Bubbi: „Hann hefur reynt allt til þess að fá ljósið á sig kannski ætti hann að kúka á sviði þá fengi hann mögulega umfjöllun við hæfi.“
Musicians Ragnheiður Gröndal, Jakob Frímann Magnússon & Orri Harðarson responded on Bubbi's FaceBook too.
