Jul 9, 2012A hoot.

MojoAug 8, 2012The sense of isolation, longing and homesickness are palpable. But he's also wry and darkly funny, self-referential, and self-deprecating too. [Sep 2012, p.95]

May 29, 2012Sprawling but consistently clean and light, Among the Leaves is sprightlier than much of Kozelek's previous work.

May 30, 2012With 17 tracks, Kozelek proves that he in fact can write a song under the five-minute mark, can be bright and bereaved in equal measure, and can even have a little fun doing this whole music thing.

May 29, 2012Kozelek's guitar playing is predictably tremendous, what with all those incessant triads and nervous arpeggios. But at 17(!) tracks, many of them floundering for melody and meaning, this is the first SKM release to spin its wheels.
