    Melodic Superchunk at their finest. If you prefer Come Pick Me Up or Here’s Where the Strings Come In over the louder or mellower records, don't miss it. The arrangements are gorgeous and Mac's voice seems to improve over the years (how is that even possible?).

    Wild Loneliness is the perfect album for this moment, in which darkness isn’t denied but is repudiated to within an inch of its life.

    The result is an engrossing album full of stock-taking warmth. [Mar 2022, p.71]

    Full of infectious, summery pop melodies, acoustic guitars and abrasion. [Apr 2022, p.77]
