  1. Entertainment Weekly
    91
    A gorgeous mosaic of shimmering guitar pop that caresses the eardrums like fine chenille.
  2. New Musical Express (NME)
    80
    It feels self-consciously downbeat and rustic, with a Gomez-style, recorded-in-a-shed sheen which belies Nigel Godrich's pristine, state-of-the-art production.
  3. Alternative Press
    60
    The Invisible Band has more layers, more moods than ever before, and more tunes as well. [July 2001, p.88]

    I can't understand. Why some critic must be always so overlooking, consider their forecast and hopes as what shall, or better MUST, happen? This album is simply fantastic.… Expand
