Jenny lewis can sell every track on this album with her amazing vocals. Some of the songs were even a bit folkish for my taste, but given the way Jenny and the band present them, I couldn't help but fall in love with the entire thing.

love it! portions for foxs and does he love you? are on constant repeat. jenny's voice is so fresh and beautiful.
Andy gave it a6:
Good but not great. A couple of so-so songs really hurt the total album for me.
G. T gave it a6:
"i never" is a beautiful track, and you can see interesting innovation throughout all of the tracks, but somehow the CD in its entirety seems just--stale.
blair s gave it a10:
definitely one of my most favourite albums of all time! incredible songs from beginnning to end... 'a man/me/then jim' is lyrically gorgeous, 'it just is' is just great 'i never' is vocally flawless 'does he love you?' is stunning 'the absence of god' is amazing Just a GREAT album! I love it!
Andrew W gave it a10:
This Album has been wonderful me. "Does He Love You?" always hits me so hard. Such emotion is provocative throughout the whole ablum. Overall it is so intelligent and put together. Just tasty.
Marisa C gave it a6:
I'd give this album between a 6 and a 7. While a set of very tuneful songs, the slick production has zapped some of the charms of the group's sounds. Lyrics are nowhere near as irreverent nor interesting as The Execution of All Things, but hope that the next album will return to being more home-spun.
