    Darkness at Noon is the most exciting record to be put out this semester.
  2. Stylus Magazine
    83
    What is remarkable is the way that they have made a recording that can remain entertaining and engaging, resist becoming background, even while leaving you with the nagging sense that it was about nothing but the act of musical reference itself.
  3. Under The Radar
    60
    It's interesting, at times catchy, but should be avoided if klezmer and mariachi aren't your bag. [#9]
