Dec 8, 2012The dreamy grandeur of this album is difficult to pin down as every listen seems to render the album in a different light, but it's appeal is likely easily found by both fans of nostalgic music and those seeking a collection of songs which could all easily qualify as singles.

Oct 20, 2010Out of all the artists currently aping/paying homage to/trying to replicate the sound of the 80's, this guy does it best without sounding gimmicky. Really not a single bad song on the entire album but "At My Heels" "Slow" and "When We're Dancing" are especially excellent. Definitely one of the top albums of the year and one that you can see having staying power.

Dec 21, 2010Unlike the many psychedelic loop-crazy Panda Bears popping up these days, Twin Shadow skilfully crafts structured songs that stand out and are full of soul and mournfulness.
