    An exceptional album of such deep sincerity I am hooked. If you are looking for something different yet totally accessible this is a album to listen to,

    It’s this constant shifting of tone and genre that makes Deportation Blues such a delight to listen to. That it comes from such a turbulent and traumatic period in its creator’s life is somewhat surprising, because even though this is an album that has its moments of darkness, there’s an irrepressible spirit and joy contained in almost every single song here.

    With Deportation Blues, Brian Christinzio has created his own Big Star 3rd, less druggy but just as much a musical voyage through one man's psyche that travels through darkness while searching for some gleam of healing light. Let's hope he finds it before he makes his next album.

    It hangs together and, indeed, convincingly documents fragmentation of the individual. [Sep 2018, p.94]
