    I think it's a great album. A little bit different like the Snow Patrol, but it's enough different.

    Listening to The Place just makes you wish they were a bit happier and having a bit more fun with it. [Fall 2010, p.69]
  2. On tracks like "Point Me At Lost Islands," where weather metaphors share equal space with acoustic guitars and fiddle solos, the group manages to shake out the doldrums and hit a genuine stride. But the rest of the album doesn't flow so well, and The Place We Ran From winds up amounting to far less than the sum of its parts.
  3. By and large The Place We Ran From falls well short of the left-of-centre power and eerie intimacy of Lightbody's heroes' music.
