    There is a sincerity and warmth to Pinegrove that I find lovely and unique. Hall's lyrics have an unusual literariness that would be pretentious under someone less talented. Pinegrove has proved, to me at least, that they are a serious band and worth listening to.

    Evan Stephens Hall has an incredible way of making this album sound personal. Not as much in the sense of personal as in relatable, but like he is singing directly to you, nearby. For you. It’s honest, poetic, layered, raw, a true piece of art. The whole album was produced very well and the entire band sounds great, including several guitar parts being very memorable.

    Ciertamente sensible e intenso, la banda comete el error de tocar esas emociones sin realmente explorarlas. De repente las canciones se sienten muy largas y de repente muy cortas, esto es gracias a que les toma mucho tiempo decir poco y en el ultimo toque se explayan muy brevemente en conceptos musicales que pudieron haber sido interesantes de explorar. A pesar de no ser novedoso y sorprendente, la producción, por Evan Stephens Hall y Sam Skinner, se encargan de tocar las notas correctas para activar emociones sinceras, reflexivas y maduras en quienes escuchan el álbum.

    Certainly sensible and intense, the band makes the mistake of touching tose emotions without really exploring them. The songs suddenly feel too long and suddenly too short. This is thanks to the fact that it takes too much time to say very few and too few and in the last moment they briefly explode a musical concept that could've been very interesting to explore. Even though not being original and surprising, the production, by Evan Stephens Hall and Sam Skinner, take care of touching the right notes to activate sincere, reflective and mature emotions in those who listen.    … Expand

    On “Marigold,” Pinegrove is a more temperate band than it has been, and also a crisper and less complicated one, a musical direction it had already been moving in on its last album.

    A 37-minute album that feels closer to feature-length.

    There’s a danger throughout Marigold of looking too deeply into every lyric, and of searching for meaning in each song. Those who come to Pinegrove without knowing the backstory will find an album of pleasant alt-country that may not hit the heights of their back catalogue, but feels like a tentative step back to normality.
