Oct 22, 2015I wasn't a fan of the Augustines before, in fact I I'd never even heard of them. This was a reco from a friend that sat "un-listened to" for about a year. Big mistake. Big. This is easily one of the best albums I've heard in a while - McCarthy's vocals took a sec to wrap my head around, but the tunes... Man, they just sweep you up and take you on anthemic trip. Big, emotional, rewarding.

Feb 20, 2014Ostensibly an album about finding hope and navigating through the pathways of solace, Augustines is a shimmering, first-rate slice of pensive and passionate indie-rock.

Q MagazineFeb 14, 2014While this maximalist approach might conceivably work well live, on record it often feels overblown, overwhelming and ultimately exhausting. [Mar 2014, p.108]
