MagnetJun 13, 2012The best moments are soft and strange. "The Corner" is a fabulous piece of folk understatement and emotional ambiguity, while the brilliant "Freefall" showcases Branan's willingness to stretch his voice to odd, ugly places in the service of transcendence. [No.88 p.53]

Alternative PressMay 31, 2012Each track is different from the last, yet the album maintains a cohesive identity. [Jun 2012, p.76]

UncutAug 2, 2012Mutt offers a terrific spread of styles. [Sep 2012, p.73]
