Generally favorable reviews - based on 5 Critics What's this?

  • Summary: The Texas artist formerly known as Theory of Everything releases his second album.
Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 4 out of 5
  2. Negative: 0 out of 5
  1. 80
    Don't be expecting any Texas harsh, desert-crusted psychedelia–this is more fields and forest music, lush electronica crafted with some awesome, mutant pop songwriting.
  2. Been Meaning to Tell You is not exactly a musical revolution wrapped in a hoodie, but it is a solid step toward legitimacy for the label and is worthy of recognition for Gonzales' hard work.
  3. Even the sunniest of good-time albums needs a source of tension, but Gonzalez has provided nothing more than a stream of pleasantry. The resulting album is immediately gratifying, but there's nothing to keep the listener coming back.
