    It's the work of an artist at the absolute top of her game, and as a result, Herein Wild ranks as one of the best, most inspired and inspiring, albums of 2013.

    Ms. Rose’s pop confections aren’t simple escapes.

    This is a real treat from a rapidly evolving artist and one of the year’s most purely pleasurable albums.

    Herein Wild is a nice record, skillfully executed, but it's essentially the aural equivalent of living in a padded cell: so soft and secure you find yourself yearning for some harsh everyday reality. [Aug-Sep 2013, p.94]

    It might be subject to less scrutiny had it not followed Interstellar, but then again, it might not be subject to scrutiny at all, and simply filed away with any other competent and unexceptional dream-pop.

    For the most part, it's an effective addition.... The only real snag here is Rose's voice, which sometimes sounds so detached as to be barely present. [Nov 2013, p.78]

    Those pop songs, [not the ones on Herein Wild,] confess everything and never apologize. Herein Wild just disappears.
