100There is a monumental feeling of strength and courage in their music that is impossible to deny.
-
A tautly crafted, thoughtful album, Shine a Light more than follows through on the promise of their debut, and proves that the Constantines have the ability to be both down to earth and dramatic within their grasp.
-
Shine has a nasty penchant for treading water instead of making any real artistic statement. [#5, p.100]

MitchB10These songs are perfectly composed to emphasize the poetic lyrics and the intricate, yet intense melodies. The Constantines are prophets.
