    At times beautiful, at times shambling. [Jun 2006, p.194]
  3. The music presented with such care here is lovely, soothing, and seductively beguiling; taken in enough times, it becomes utterly magical.
  4. Coupling their graceful, intuitive musicianship with a resolute outward-bound gaze, Feathers appear ready to join the elite of the avant-folk underground.
  5. The more you listen, the more you'll start to pick up on the elaborate instrumentation that exists in the background.
  6. Uncut

    A small-hours gem. [Jun 2006, p.100]
  7. Rolling Stone

    Imagine music inspired by the Beatles' "Mother Nature's Son" and the Grateful Dead's "Mountains of the Moon" made with harps, hand drums and murmured vocals. [4 May 2006, p.57]
