-
Oct 29, 2013Get There, is a thoughtful, interesting record (about what it means to be thoughtful and interesting).
-
Nov 15, 2013Minor Alps is a collaboration between American indie stalwarts Matthew Caws (of Nada Surf) and Juliana Hatfield, an alliance so congruent that Get There is surely the best work of their careers.
-
Nov 8, 2013Get There is an intelligent, authentic alternative rock album that sounds as enjoyable to live in as it probably was to make.
-
Nov 4, 2013They wrote, sang and played everything (except drums) on the album, meshing individual styles where they comfortably overlap, in a zone of graceful, grown-up folk-rock.

Dec 4, 2013Unfortunately, their grown-up aversion to trouble can topple into polite, forgettable niceness, with the strongest feeling inn offer being a gentle brand of contented melancholy. [Nov-Dec 2013, p.91]
-
Oct 29, 2013A predominantly lush, lovely rendered debut that is never less than pleasant. Unfortunately, it’s seldom more than that either as these amiable tunes drift on a dreamy haze that threatens to slide into a memorable chorus or melody, but seldom does.
-
Nov 19, 2013An unhurried, casual nature is part of what makes Get There’s softer material pretty, but it could also be the thing holding Minor Alps back from writing truly great, uptempo rock songs.
