New Musical Express (NME)A disorientatingly great mess of free-jazz, space-rock and voodoo swamp music. [10 Dec 2005, p.37]
-
SpinInstead of updating psych garage folk, they allow its corpus to fester in skronky breakdowns, churning feedback, and... a wicked spirit-medium session. [Jan 2006, p.91]
-
Entertainment WeeklySoupy and chaotic as it may be, there's something truly hypnotic about the indescribability of it all. [2 Dec 2005, p.81]
-
Lacking the emotional knack for jaw-dropping singles, the band succeeds in consistently churning out songs that would be solid filler on an amazing album-- a Magical Mystery Tour comprised solely of "Blue Jay Way"'s.
-
While the album's ambitions occasionally get the better of the actual music, For the Season's intermittent brilliance is worth digging and waiting for.
-
A bewildering kaleidoscopic whirlwind that retains edginess and remains splendid all at once.
-
MagnetOn first listen, For The Season is pleasantly trippy. Listen closely, however, and it seems rather patchy. [#70, p.100]
