Paste MagazineFor diehard Elliott Smith fans, New Moon is an absolute must... For remaining listeners, it's merely instructive, sublime in parts but not solid enough or surprising enough or interesting enough, musically, to merit multiple listens. [May 2007, p.58]
-
Too few of the two dozen half-developed tracks here do justice to Smith's talent as a songwriter.
-
You can hear him trying to figure things out, and that’s the most lasting and vital aspect of New Moon.
