  1. The Boston Phoenix
    100
    It’s brimming with curious melodies (like the darkly cute skews of the title track), rich poetic detail (as lush as the orange carpet in '16A'), and a truly generous spirit (you can listen to the whole damn thing over and over).
  2. Boston Globe
    70
    From the sound of the duo's new album, not much has changed since then. They're still in synch and still seem to be having a good time together. Except now they're making music that's joyous, infectious, and occasionally delicate (OK, many would say twee).
  3. All Music Guide
    70
    The McGregors are ultimately at their best when their dynamic isn't overpowered by too many musical ideas.
  4. PopMatters
    60
    Sometimes it’s just too sweet for its own good, but true fans of the genre will eat this album right up.
