Burn and Shiver shows Azure Ray maturing and improving the quality of their craft while settling into their familiar, pleasant formula.

All Music Guide
Another 12 tracks of curiously beautiful but quite intense melancholy.

Alternative Press
Exquisitely crafted folk-pop minimalism that whispers with profundity and burrows deep into your heart. [July 2002, p.84]
60
Magnet
Their second album only partially makes good on their promise, delivering a lovely package that lacks the emotional punch of last year's terrific self-titled debut. [#55, p.70]
49
Stylus Magazine
An entirely mediocre album that hints at a greatness that may lie beneath.
