"Love the fuzz. I think this is on the way to being my favorite post-YHF Wilco album. And the added surprise makes it even better." Reply

"A tightly packed offering of a few different beautiful stylings of Samba. Great melodies, cool arrangements, unexpected vocal jumps. Can’t imagine this not being an enjoyable listen for a majority of people." Reply

"How to define it? Brilliant Full of emotions, an exploration of acoustic and digital instruments all in different layers. The better way to listen to 10,000 HZ, is to turn off the lights and turn your stereo on as loud as you want, you wont regret. Mixtures of electronic music, progressive rock, ..." [+] Reply

"This is a very raw, emotional, and just beautiful folk album. Excellent guitar playing, passionate vocals, really beautiful word play, and feels. Lots and lots of feels. Case in point, "The Sparrow and The medicine"" Reply

"Lovely work from Kurt Vile. He's really came into his own as an artist and this album is him doubling down on that formula. Great Indie/Americana. Best tracks: Pretty Pimpin, Wheelhouse, Wild Imagination" Reply
