Apr 28, 2014Old Fears is the sound of a quick, keen mind at work and play.

Apr 8, 2014This time the emotional waters run just as deep as the musical ones, and it stands as some of the best brainy, heartfelt pop around.

UncutApr 1, 2014Old Fears is entirely worth your concentration. [Apr 2014, p.81]
-
Q MagazineApr 23, 2014Twisty and characterful, this is frequently dazzling stuff. [May 2014, p.118]

Apr 1, 2014It’s a skew-wiff funk record you can’t dance to, something to get lost in while not immediate, stuffed with arrangements that have so much going on but you hardly notice once they’re set.

Apr 11, 2014Part of Brewis’ duty in Field Music was to keep them from veering over the edge into too busy AOR prog, and he uses that same keen ear to keep Old Fears from becoming too cute or kitsch with the tweed-funk.

Apr 7, 2014It works because of its twitchy pop sensibilities, which gaze longingly back at the '80s, and while that isn't a bad thing, it's still a hard record to get attached to.
