Sep 1, 2015A fantastically well-crafted album, every song on Poison Season reveals close attention to detail. The instrumentation on many of the tracks is complex, layered, and captivating. Best of all, Poison Season blends elements from recent releases with older releases synthesizing them into something new, unexpected, and interesting.
Without a doubt, one of the best albums of this year. -
Aug 28, 2015This is a grand album. One of Destroyer's best. And that's saying something given this band's output over the past decade plus. It's rich, musically lush and lyrically dynamic. And the strings... Lordy, the strings. There aren't many making music like this, and it's thrilling to hear Bejar and company hit the mark once again. Outstanding album, and one of my favorites of 2015 thus far.

Sep 3, 2015On Poison Season, you can occasionally detect the dismaying sound of indie rock's greatest intellect second-guessing itself.

Aug 31, 2015It’s the kind of album you can listen to many times without wearing it out, without even getting much of a grip on why you like it.
