  • Summary: The sophomore album for the New Yorker was produced by Zach Hill
Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 14 out of 16
  2. Negative: 0 out of 16
  1. This Is It And I Am It And You Are It And So Is That And He Is It And She Is It And It Is It And That Is That, down to its mouthful of a title, is a fearless album, brought to fruition by a desire to push boundaries and explore sound.
  2. Mathy, but hyper melodic, it packs more ideas into forty minutes than most releases that are much longer. Stern has clearly side-stepped the sophomore slump.
  3. 60
    Pleasingly, the most difficult thing about the album is its name. [Dec 2008, p.116]
