    A great return for one of the best voices in popular music ever! "Falling Off a Log" is stunning and I can't wait for remixes of "Grand Canyon."

    Superb album from Tracey Thorn. 'Out of the Woods' works a hold on your heart and refuses to let go.

    the voice is back! the most sublime pop record of the year. Seamless throughout...with standout cuts : "Grand Canyon" "Easy" "Raise the Roof" "Falling Off a Log" and the first single...the 80s electro-tinged "It's All True."

    Excellent album. Refreshing. Brings new sounds to the impressive collection of Everything but the girl...now that there's just the girl. Tracey thorn rocks.

    Definitely one of the best albums of 2007, almost perfect. features half a dozen 11/10 songs - it's all true, raise the roof, falling off a log, grand canyon, a-z, easy.

    Does anyone actually take Pitchfork seriously? EVER?

    The spellbinding mix of shimmering folk and shimmying disco on Out of the Woods eclipses her past work.
