Jan 29, 2016By the time The Morning Is Waiting appears, all glorious awakenings in pianos and strings, the album begins to feel triumphant. The elation continues to the end, with the funk returning in spades for Same Name, before closer Stay Awake warms you up to start over.

UncutJan 29, 2016The idiosyncratic chamber-pop o these 14 songs evokes The Kinks, XTC and the more melancholy side of Hot Chip; like much of their past work, it's musically intricate, too. [Mar 2016, p.73]

Feb 2, 2016Essentially, Commontime is business as usual for Field Music. If anything the mood is distinctly upbeat this time.
-
Feb 5, 2016Commontime is full of engaging ideas and genial character, by some distance the most assured and complete of Field Music’s releases.
-
Feb 16, 2016This is the band’s sixth album in an 11-year career and it feels at once fresh and self-assured, bearing its painstaking complexity with a striking nonchalance.
-
Feb 16, 2016There may be simple logic behind the phrase quality over quantity yet here there is clear cohesion and thought.
-
Jan 29, 2016Over 14 tracks, repetitive funk riffs and chatty, conversationalist lyrics start to wear a little thin, and a lack of diversity makes for such comfortable listening that you risk all-too-comfortably tuning out.
