    I've been a fan forever and love how this record is so in line with their others but also really different.

    For all its faraway humming and quietly steady pace, Windsor for the Derby has still made a "band" album.

    There is some irony in following up a record called We Fight Til Death with one titled (and as vital as) Giving Up The Ghost. However, Windsor For The Derby doesn't sound as if it has succumbed to anything save for its singular atmospheric pop tendencies.

    May stand as the band's most focused disc to date.
