"My favorite all time soundtrack album. It's even better than the T.V. series soundtrack, with little Jimmy Scott one of the many highlights with the haunting, sycamore trees. Julee Cruise sings another beautiful track, and the instrumentals from Angelo Badalmenti are stunning, atmospheric, beauti..."  [+]  Reply

"One current artist I'm astounded has yet to follow up this masterful work of retro=pop material. Bulletproof was an absolute smash and Ellie has remained quiet long after. Looking forward to the follow up more than any other really since it's been so long"  Reply

"There needs to be a term for this kind of music that’s been gaining such popularity so quickly. Mumford & Sons, The Avett Brothers, The Punch Brothers, Trampled By Turtles, and now The Lumineers. It’s like all of a sudden the public cares a little bit about bluegrass. But it’s not “true" bluegras..."  [+]  Reply

"If you're expecting another Return to Cookie Mountain (or even a Dear Science), you'll be disappointed with this. But this album is fantastic in its own right - much more immediate and with tons of hooks. I'd almost call this alternative R&B over indie rock. Not to say it's completely hook-driven..."  [+]  Reply

"It's nearly perfect from the sheer prospect of that in its short 30 minute run time, there isnt a weak point. Golden Chords is my favorite track of 2016 thus far. This LP will find a place in my top 5 at the end of this year, and if not- that will be a testament to the year itself."  Reply

"Edges of Twilight is an absolute trip. It is chockers full of awesome songs and very skilfully crosses over between the genres of rock, blues, folk and world music. This is where The Tea Party further developed the Eastern and Indian flavours explored in Splendor Solis, merging these sounds and c..."  [+]  Reply
