    Carried by his gruff voice, Foundling's all warm arrangements and real emotion.

    The sense of abandonment hinted in the title of David Gray's second album in less than a year, Foundling, could be a reference to the work's minimalist nature.

    Bare bones it may be, but it's still recognizably David Gray. [Sept. 2010, p. 102]

    This album may be out of time, often boring, but is just too competent to lend itself to any fun.
