  1. Dot Music
    80
    The aching sensitivity of many of these lonely acoustic compositions is balanced against an inventive backdrop of instrumentation.
  2. PopMatters
    80
    This is the stuff of classic sad-bastard pop music, but the arrangements elevate this to a different, more interesting level.
  3. Alternative Press
    60
    With this soft-spoken and delicate record of almost-drawling songs, he's moved his work one step closer to Nashville. [Mar 2002, p.81]
