    What makes Pan Am Stories worth returning to is the scope Knight works within, where elements of prog, folk, and psychedelia blur in and out of focus.

    The fact that this doesn't sound like a solo project at all is a testament to the success of its expansive vision.

    Pan Am Stories is an early masterpiece for Knight, an ambitious photographic travelogue constructed out of the raw materials of bedroom psych-pop.

    There aren't as many powerful moments as on, say, a Ducktails record, but fans of that sound will find more to love here.

    It stretches out the crashed edits of 20120's Suburban Tours, to something more diffuse and soulful. [Feb 2012, p.97]
