May 21, 2020One of the most emotional albums I've ever listened to. Short and incredibly sweet.

May 27, 2011A remarkable, fragile, beautiful album. There is a distinctly melancholy air to the whole thing, which reminds me slightly of Neutral Milk Hotel or perhaps (a Scottish) Bon Iver. Whatever, it's a fantastic piece of work in it's own right. Highly recommended.

Dec 7, 2011Languid, pastoral, and remarkably serene (each track segues into each other like ice melting on a spring pond), Diamond Mine is so unobtrusive that it barely registers.... A lovely collection of ambient folk songs.

May 20, 2011It's clear that none of these songs really require amplification, that they, in fact, drive the beauty of Diamond Mine. Still, Hopkins's deft touch somehow adds to, rather than subtracts from, their elemental simplicity
