    This is no slavish style bite by Euro pretenders; it's a delectable refiguring.

    If you can get past all the arch pretension, When the Deer Wore Blue rewards you with plenty of tunes.
  3. The A.V. Club
    75
    When The Deer peaks with a three-song suite--'Drunkard's Dream,' 'Half Awake, Half Aware,' and 'Angel Of The Bayou'--that maintains a low-burn intensity, stacking up drumrolls and deep twang while moving with a natural force.
  4. New Musical Express (NME)
    60
    Songs schizophrenically jump from A to X, from great to merely good, with scant warning or point.

    Everything is made with great effort, the tracks can easely stand alone. It's good work, but compaired to their previous album Skeleton it lags the spontainious and catchy tunes.… Expand
