What some people have said about MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE :
"Mikrofisch intelligently deconstruct the world they live in while paying unironic tribute to the music they love. (...) This album is a bit like finding a He-Man action figure inside a Kinder egg: a nostalgic but nerdy cool surprise inside a sweet, waxy chocolate shell. The perfect gift for a generation who know too much to care very much." ( Condemned to Rock 'N Roll Blog )
"And these people sure know how to write a catchy tune! Let's Kiss and listen to Bis will have post-fanzine-glitterkids era twentysomethings in throes of nostalgia/happily shuffledancing around their tourposter-clad bedrooms. It's a fabulous song, with ace 80s style synths and it's even namechecking the Afghan Wigs." ( i shot the deputy )
"The Hamburg/London duo sound like a sublime merging of Echo & the Bunnymen (when Echo, the band's "drummer," was just a drum machine) and the Hacienda-cum-basement-dance-party." ( bibabidi.com )
""The first song, 'Drum Machines Will Save Mankind' serves as a kind of mission statement for Mikrofisch in their understated quest to take over the musical universe: 'Play a beat so we can dance, make the kids form bedroom bands.'" ( 3hive.com )
""Silvi Wersi und Mawe N Klave ist ein kleines Indiepop-Meisterwerk gelungen. 'Masters Of The Universe' ist Nerdcore par excellence. Es wird ein Referenzteppich geknüpft, der so dicht ist, dass er jedes Glatteis, auf das man sich bei so viel Zitaten begeben könnte, überdeckt." ( taz popblog (Album des Monats) )
"Die Klangzitate versehen sie mit irrsinnigen Melodien – schon für den an die guten Tage von The Cure erinnernden Ohrwurm Alien Monsters lohnt der Kauf, ähm, das Sichschenkenlassen des ganzen Albums." ( Zeit.de )
