May 28, 2015The power of Goldsmith’s words elevates it all to the next level.
-
Jun 1, 2015It's a return trip to the well that provided Nothing is Wrong, but one made by a band that has gained significant perspective, clout, and chops in the four years that have now passed since that record.
-
Jun 1, 2015All Your Favorite Bands has a warm, organic texture that's at once raw and immediate, sophisticated and polished.
-
Jun 2, 2015It’s not really moving them forward much musically, but it’s a brilliant emotional journey into the head of someone reeling from a break-up and calmly but confusingly picking up all of the pieces.
-

-

May 28, 2015It’s a technically sound addition to a well-regarded catalog. But if you’re looking for an album that pushes sonic boundaries, provides new challenges for the artists that created it, or even just sounds fresh, All Your Favorite Bands probably isn’t your best bet.
-
May 28, 2015Stylistically, their fourth record doesn't depart much from previous ones.
-
Jun 5, 2015All Your Favorite Bands is plenty polished, but scratch the surface and there’s close to zero going on beneath it; it’s the kind of record that you’re in danger of forgetting before it’s even finished playing.
