Aug 19, 2011The instrumentation is luscious and variable, the harmonies are wonderful, the lyrics are solid and compelling for the most part, and with such a lovely blend of slower and up-tempo tracks to choose from, Overlook is something you definitely don't want to do in regards to what might just be considered Maria Taylor's finest solo effort to date.
-
Aug 19, 2011This is a band album, and a solid one at that.
-
Aug 19, 2011Overlook is her best, most animated collection in years.
-
Alternative PressAug 19, 2011Overlook has its moments. [Sep 2011, p.120]
-
Aug 19, 2011While Taylor's voice is more adventurous than ever, it seems that the music hasn't quite caught up.
-
Aug 19, 2011Ultimately, there just isn't enough content here to drive an entire album, and halfway through Taylor loses her footing.
-
Aug 19, 2011Taylor's whispery, timid voice sounds restrained on nearly every track. Coupled with repetitive lyrics and monotonous rhythms, Overlook is a yawn-inducing piece.
