Feb 17, 2017A conduit for sound at its most expressive potential, No Home of the Mind squeezes all it can from the five-person form into something warm and full and unprecedented.
-
Mar 3, 2017No Home of the Mind fits the bill as the best ambient record so far in 2017.
-
Feb 21, 2017The new album stays focused on wringing as much feeling as possible out of narrower terrain. And No Home of the Mind is the earthiest Bing & Ruth record yet. You can smell the sweat that went into it.
-
Feb 16, 2017Like an old church redesigned as luxury apartments, the album’s constant juxtaposition of chamber music and New Age minimalism can be forced and fatiguing. But its audaciousness is undisputable, never succumbing to the predictable.

Feb 16, 2017Melancholy but not overbearingly so, No Home of the Mind is thoroughly entrancing, and another triumph for Bing & Ruth.

Q MagazineFeb 16, 2017A deep listen. [Apr 2017, p.111]
