    Ultimately, God is less in the details, here, and Lonesome Dreams' success lies largely in the irrefutably vaulting sweep of the music and the ineffable air of melancholy-dented redemption which it so effectively conjures.

    The production of his debut is appropriately epic, its echoing acoustic guitars and yearning, Fleet Foxy vocals mixed with cowboy cattle calls and Pawnee chants.

    Its cavernous production, Massed campfire guitars and rolling melodies conjure prairies, river and mountains from shore to shining shore. [Feb 2013, p.75]

    It sounds like the soundtrack to an odd dream about a Western film. [Mar 2013, p.96]

    I think Lord Huron took a page from Yeasayer and Fleet Foxes and came up with a beautiful album. Not a bad song on the whole thing. In fact this quickly became my favorite album. It has a nice mixture of strong vocals and touch of psychedelic sounds mixed with beautiful melodies and beautiful lyrics. Collapse
