    Darkness has been a frequent companion on She Keeps Bees' earlier releases, but most of Eight Houses seems to take it a step further, verging between sad and threatening, yet ultimately powerful.

    From start to finish, the record stirs with hazy horns and an obsession with elusiveness.

    While at times her guitar rages filthily. She branched out lyrically too. [Oct 2014, p.79]

    The pace rarely picks up on this latest LP, but She Keeps Bees prove as well as anybody that the slow and steady path will still win a lot of races. [Sep/Oct 2014, p.105]

    It feels distant and phoned in.
