"Vincent Segretario and Hannah Avalon have developed an aesthetic steeped in love for theater and the dreamy, dreary sounds of gothy 80s and 90s synth-pop bands, but on Cutting Room Floor they also embrace new directions and experiments—as well as some of their best songwriting yet."
–Chicago Reader

"Enchanting post-punk... Addictively danceworthy."
–CVLT Nation

"Wingtips’ sophomore album Cutting Room Floor is a love letter to the classic dark pop sound of the 80s, while highlighting songwriting that transcends nostalgia with shimmering melodies and heartfelt emotions that resonate throughout."
–Post-Punk

"The duo leans heavily on dark, ’80s sounds, while modernizing their sound... Choruses are filled with hooks that are unforgettable."
–New Noise

"With a sound that falls somewhere between the synth-pop yearning of Korine and the romantic post-punk of Artoffact label mates ACTORS, WINGTIPS are busy furthering not only goth-pop’s modern resurgence, but their own sound as well."
–Vanyaland

"An electropop duo with a sound reminiscent of the new wave radio hits of the 1980s, with just enough modern experimentation to keep them from being merely a nostalgia act. "
–Dallas Observer

"Dark, infectious pop."
–Echoes and Dust

"On 'Cutting Room Floor,' the duo sought to break down their self-styled brand of 'new romantic for post-millennial end times' and distill it down into what makes it a success: brighter melodies, deeper emotions and a much more stripped-down approach... They have created a blend of sounds that definitely leaves the 80’s influences apparent, but also showcases their unique talents and a level of honesty that makes good pop songs great."
–Nine Circles

"Think of it as 'new romantic for post-millennial end times' (the band’s own words). Catch them on tour in North America in 2021 and 2022, especially if you’re a fan of their contemporaries like HEALTH and CHVRCHES."
–Off Shelf
