StephenC.Aug 23, 2008People need to stop trashing 'without feathers', that is one great record. Problems is these reviewers only listen to it once, not like the people who appreciate it, the fans.

JenF.Aug 20, 2008This is a terrific CD . Can't understand some critics trying to demolish it . Ratings by the public have certainly proved them wrong. Well done lads ! Sir Paul McCartney did well to choose you to open his concert in Quebec city on July 20th.

BobH.Aug 19, 2008This record is like an epic. It tells a story I think most of us try to suppress inside ourselves but anxiously want told. The production and arrangements play with your soul as your conscience struggles with the message conveyed in the lyrics. Great work guys. It should be fun to see how this translates in a live show.

NickS.Aug 19, 2008Oceans Will Rise is a beautiful record. The songwriting is miles beyond what all those other blogger-bands. Well done, The Stills.

Alternative PressIt's by far the most readily accessible release in the A&C catalog and heightened the Stills anxieties to pathological levels, like setting bullet points from "An Inconvenuient Truth" to upbeat tunes. [Sep 2008, p.150]
-
It's done two good things for the Stills: sharpened their songwriting and returned them after a dull Album No. 2. to the crystalline guitar minimalism of their debut. [Sep 2008, p.84]
-
The hooks and charm of their epic debut, "Logic Will Break Your Heart," were decidedly missing from their 2006 sophomore effort, "Without Feathers," but Oceans Will Rise marks a partial return to form for the Montreal quartet.
