Alternative PressA confident and bold album... [but] it unfortunately expends so much energy being spooky and otherworldly that most of the anticipated enchanting beauty is nowhere to be found. [Sep 2005, p.156]
-
Entertainment WeeklyThough pretty, the influences of her recent international travels do betray a wind-chime-y whiff of Enya. [26 Aug 2005, p.61]
-
If you're striving to restore faith in a world of "prophets, pimps, angels" and "whores," you gotta do better than Sarah McLachlan melodies and a rented Haitian choir.
-
Under The RadarStick around and listen again, and the songs will reveal themselves as something distinct and remarkable that shrug off any nostalgia for past work. [#10, p.106]
-
UrbThese ornate, post-folk musings are bittersweet and beautiful. [Sep 2005, p.118]
-
There are few efforts as noble as Fink’s attempt to express the realities of human suffering. It’s unfortunate that Invisible Ones can’t consistently relate these messages musically.
-
BlenderFink's pretty, dusky voice moves like time-lapse clouds over earthy beats that build to cymbal-crash storms. [Sep 2005, p.133]
-
Fink stays close to the sonic templates of both Now It's Overhead and Azure Ray, but has less impact than either.
-
FilterA challenging record. [#17, p.97]
-
New Musical Express (NME)Completely lacking in imagination. [1 Oct 2005, p.47]
-
UncutThere's emotional violence, spiritual leaps and supernatural powers lurking in the shadows. [Nov 2005, p.96]
-
Paste MagazineLovely and visceral at once. [Oct/Nov 2005, p.141]
-
Mojo[Doesn't] always make satisfactory listening. [Dec 2005, p.104]
-
MagnetAn ambitious album... but it's undercut by Fink's inconsistent readings. [#69, p.96]
-
Invisible Ones stands steadily as an encouraging signpost in Fink's career.
