    Didn't It Rain may be simplistic compared to its more eclectic and haunting predecessor ['Ghost Tropic'], but it evokes the world-weary tones of Neil Young's 1970 masterpiece After The Gold Rush. [Jun 2002, p.86]

    Easily the most satisfying Songs: Ohia album since Axxess & Ace.
  3. Pitchfork

    In the process of recording another incredible album, he's discovered that light is most visible when it's flickering alone in the dark.

    Contains enough stunned wonder and insular grit to entrance the more hidden nooks of your unconscious for months. [#34, p.64]

    In his own oblique way, Molina's crafted one of his most introspective and satisfying Songs: Ohia records yet.
  7. Mojo

    The results are mesmeric in their stately extrapolation of gloom. [May 2002, p.102]
