RussBJun 4, 2006Incredible music. Have loved this record for years. Fortunate to have seen them twice in San Francisco. Creates a fantastic mood with their harmonies. A classic!!!

EricNov 1, 2001There's not a bad track on it; only beauty and redemption.The title of this album speaks volumes musically and lyrically. Introspective, melancholic and saturated with hope. Definitely one of the best albums of the year.

Quiet Is The New Loud captures coffee-shop folk without its twee indulgences.

It's an album for well-mannered emotional crises in front of log fires, a soundtrack for quivering bottom lips.

Shifting from light and airy to a sort of mild bossa-nova groove on a few tracks, Kings of Convenience throw in just enough variation to keep things interesting, without snapping the listener out of the dreamy daze they've induced.
