The album flows like sweet maple syrup from beginning to end, Kilgour's intimate croon caressing you like kind words from an old friend.
-
Frozen Orange might as well have simplicity, directness, and melody stamped like a mantra throughout the liner notes.
-
A luminously lovely solo album.
-
Anyone looking for [an] unpretentious, laidback and solid full-length is hereby invited to check out what's made Kilgour one our most consistent performers for 25 years.
-
Kilgour's song structures and orchestration never miss, and his lyrics always avoid being less or more than what they should be.
-
As gentle, elegant end-of-the-summer albums go, Frozen Orange scores top marks. As a David Kilgour record, it's more subjective; some listeners will love the polish, while others will consider it surplus to requirements.
-
Producer Mark Nevers emphasizes vamping, letting songs rev up and down in such a way that listeners can imagine them still existing somewhere outside the disc itself.
