MagnetSep 19, 2013It's the best album Fulks has ever made, period, and even if you can't quite make out the twister that swept away all that old anger, it's easy to hear the sweet, sad emptiness it left behind. [No. 102, p.56]
-
Mar 12, 2014A pair of trad-style instrumentals, "Snake Chapman's Tune" and "Pacific Slope," underlines Fulks' sublime stylistic mastery.
-
Aug 27, 2013At a time when modern country feels like bloated spandex-and-Aquanetted pop-metal, Fulks defiantly embraces an unflinching traditionalism.
-
Aug 27, 2013The result: an album where he sounds more like himself than ever before. For a guy with nothing left to prove, Fulks sure seems determined to show off.
-
Under The RadarAug 28, 2013From start to finish, Fulks' pickin' and sly grinnin' helps this set face anywhere but Backward. [Aug-Sep 2013, p.97]
-
MojoSep 19, 2013There's all kinds of going back on Robbie Fulks' eleventh and maybe finest collection. [Oct 2013, p.95]
-
Aug 29, 2013This is a finely realized album, with a wonderful, you-can-hear-a-pin-drop sound to it, and Fulks' songs are some of the best he's written, showing once again that he has no intention of being anybody's fool.
