  1. It's sure the right course correction for guys who've always fetishized the eternal old-timey more than any band from goddamn Providence should.

    Divine Providence is not an album of high art or music morality. It's not going to change young, aspiring artists. In fact, it might even bore some longtime Deer Tick fans with its lack of musical exploration.

    Deer Tick try to score points simply by sounding like they could drink all those bands under the table, and the self-absorbed and even downright hateful Divine Providence ends up drinking at you, not with you.

  1. Pitchfork is the worst thing in the history of music criticism, music, criticism, writing, art, the internet, people, things, the universe. Divine Providence is probably the best album since The Strokes landed. Get it. You'll love it. Expand
