A magisterial album.... If the group has cast off some of the youthful eclecticism, the three Chicks have pulled off something more difficult: refined their trademark sound without allowing it to turn into a copyrighted formula.
-
This is a pure country album, loaded with fiddles, acoustic guitars, and close harmonies, but retaining the Chicks' signature flair, sense of humor, and personality.... An instant classic.
-
90An album of stunning simplicity.
-
90Home is a definite top pick for 2002, and certainly kicked country music in its ass once again when it needed it the most.
-
80An album that continues their mission of yanking bluegrass into the modern era. [#9, p.149]
-
75Home is a raucous acoustic album that mows through bluegrass and traditional country with a vengeance.
-
They are incapable of shaping a song, teasing out tension, friction or emotional swoop; they're happy to just play it.
-
Although Home isn't entirely successful, it doesn't get out-and-out boring until the second half, laden with generic songs about believing in love and needing more of it, plus a lullaby that sounds like Don Henley's "The End of the Innocence."
