  • "★★★★★"

    Begin Again, rated a perfect 5.0/5.0 by The Recorded A Cappella Review Board (RARB)

  • "In terms of dynamics, tone colors, source material, interpretation, tempo choices, and stylings, the tragically too short 'Begin Again' is easily one of the most original a cappella recordings of the past decade."

    Jonathan Minkoff, The Recorded A Capella Review Board (RARB)

  • "Today, we are given an astounding, history-shaking recording from Voices in Your Head... This project is as boundary-pushing as we've heard in collegiate a cappella."

    Kimberly Raschka Sailor, The Recorded A Cappella Review Board (RARB)

  • "Here's the tea: 'Begin Again' by University of Chicago's Voices in Your Head borders on being a masterpiece."

    TeKay, The Recorded A Capella Review Board (RARB)

LIGHTS (2016)

  • "★★★★"

    LIGHTS, rated 4.7/5.0 by The Recorded A Cappella Review Board (RARB)

  • "'LIGHTS' is an artistic concept seamlessly unifying originals and covers, studio wizardry and musical performance, blazing soloists and an expressive ensemble — all in a signature sound that is at once mesmerizing and thrilling."

    Jonathan Minkoff, The Recorded A Capella Review Board (RARB)

  • "The album adds a level of focus and cohesion to the mad sorcery that fans have come to expect from ViYH. It's a blast to listen to."

    Robert Dietz, The Recorded A Cappella Review Board (RARB)

  • "Voices in Your Head's 'LIGHTS' revolves around such colorful sounds and beautiful arrangements. There's not a lot to criticize — everything is high-quality crafted, from the vocals and studio production, up to the visuals of the album art."
