Aug 12, 2011It's not as good beginning to end as Fables From a Mayfly, but it's still an album of the year contender in my book. Unique band that doesn't get nearly enough recognition.

Dec 18, 2020While not as good as their previous albums, this album is one of the few albums from Fair To Midland that helped impact my taste in music, and appreciate a more experimental sound with more beautiful; outlandish vocals and lyrics.

Jul 26, 2011Arrows and Anchors is a masterpiece. It takes the wonder of El Cielo, mixes it with the heavy prog of Tool, and goes all [insert Mike Patton project here] in its weirdness.
