The ability to make a genuine album -- and not just a collage of songs -- from a wide interest in musical styles is truly what makes this album such a delightful and great surprise.
-
The WireA very nice slab of pan-generic, lof-fi, yearn-pop. [#231, p.59]
-
An intelligent brew of bare-bones Casio drumbeats, static-driven guitar lines and widescreen arrangements.
-
Even while spanning a number of different styles, nothing on A Grown-Ass Man comes off as jarring or out of place.
-
A remarkably diverse and irresistible collection of songs.
-
BlenderMcNew adds his own hybrid theory, wittily merging classic and iconoclastic by exploring his influences. [May 2003, p.116]
-
MagnetHe slouches in with "Sisters" and begins his album-long teetering on the brink of affectation, sounding like a teenager with restratint. [#59, p.89]
-
In the end, this is better left to die-hard Yo La fans and jealous bassists everywhere.
-
[An] album that, like its predecessors, is as accomplished as it is stunted, waddling wadlessly towards its intentional exile on Cute Island.
