"Probably the album they most nailed the things they do best. Creative fun unique listening experience. I think its strength lies in them leaning heavily on the talents of Trey Anastasio and Page McConnell on this record. To me the are the strengths of this ensemble, with Fishman being servicable ..."  [+]  Reply

"This is actually amazing. Constantly switching between quirky/rhythmic (a la Talking Heads) and gloriously melodic. And there are some genuinely epic bursts of sonic power every now and then."  Reply

"They sound like ghosts here, floating memories of a past about to be forgotten forming transient structures of matter. This is enough to sound more alive than most (or maybe all) of the music in this decade of goodbyes. Shall we go singing country songs, you and I while we can..."  Reply
