    An excellent album from Matthew Sweet. He has tried something slightly different rather than trying to copy Girlfriend, and the results are very satisfying. Buy it now.

    Resembles an overstuffed scrapbook more than it does a coherent album. [22 Oct 2004, p.96]
  2. Uncut

    As ambitious and compelling as psych-tinged pop gets. [Nov 2004, p.122]
  3. Blender

    Lush and idyllic. [Nov 2004, p.142]
