  1. He deliberately avoided all piano and strings simply to prove to himself that he could write a full album without any of it. What resulted, however, was his most engaging and enjoyable album to date.
  2. Uncut
    80
    The pinnacle is the tidal rhythms of 'Sickness, Bury,' but there's plenty more here to admire and absorb. [Nov 2008, p.98]
  3. Mojo
    80
    On the second listen it sounds like a future classic. [Nov 2008, p.109]
  4. As excitingly promising a solo debut as any.
  5. This is a work oft-enchanting and tenderly relayed: the sound of a first hand both confident and considered, whetting the appetite for more from this young American with a stately flourish.
  6. Q Magazine
    60
    His first widely distributed release, is no vanity showcase. It's an album of acoustic, guitar-based singer-songwriter pop, although not quite as sparse as that sounds. [Nov 2008, p.107]
  7. To really shine, Broderick needs more of that experimentalism, less awe at his ability to create beauty.
