    It's not difficult to hear everyone from John Cate to Ryan Adams in the soundtrack. And yet, it's always distinctly Margot. [No. 108, p.57]

    The connecting factor between the songs is the laconic, melancholy spirit Margot have perfected. At times the weight can feel too heavy and risk putting the listener into a lull.

    The result is a relaxed, conversational album with stronger songs than some of the band's earlier efforts, looking over concepts of aging gracefully without succumbing to the clichés that often come along with such trains of thought.

    It stumbles on redundancy, but always falls gracefully, in perfect time with Edwards careening musical muses; it’s a sweet mess made out of heaven and hell, equal parts bitter and sweet, beautiful and stoned.
