    It's pretty, non-threatening, and your mom might enjoy it, though don't let that be a criticism. [No. 93, p.53]

    Union's production and technical minutiae are immaculate, but as always, those are checks that bounce without the song ideas to cash them.

    Union is a pleasant listen, but never quite reaches the anthemic heights the band is trying for.

    Lacking the jangly, well-crafted gems that made Morning Comes strong, the album sounds B-side-ish at times.
