    A rare mix of intimacy and experimentalism, Too Old to Die Young will resonate with indie rock fans who know what that album title really means.

    Tall Firs are becoming a bit anthemic; stand up and salute. [Winter 2008, p.94]

  3. Delusions of Adequacy

    It's definitely worth checking out if you're into noisy, low-key rock and inventive guitar work.
  4. Drowned In Sound
    60
    In all Too Old To Die Young could be listened to in 20 years and it wouldn’t sound a day older, but it is unlikely to warrant interest past the first weeks of purchase.
