  1. Invitation Songs is a welcome, and welcoming, debut.
  2. The Cave Singers' methods are clearer and less complicated than say, Joanna Newsom or Sufjan Stevens.
  3. If these songs constitute the Cave Singers' most pronounced attempts at transcending standard folk tropes, it's the gentle, percussion-free lullaby 'Helen' that ultimately proves most successful.
