"Nice record. Clearly some hard work was put into it. There's loads of good ideas and great musicianship. On the other hand, it can be way too sweet/twee and could use some poison to spice things up. Overall, a solid good record." Reply

"Really didn't get this until a few plays ago, now I love it. One of the best albums of 2016" Reply
"What, is it not cool to like The Lumineers anymore? I think they over-delivered. Tell me that you don't want to be at a rock show seeing Gun Song, and I will slap you." Reply
"Six months after it's release this album has finally got me. A lot of listens has now fully revealed the record to me and it is a stunning album. The melodies have evolved over a period of time without even changing, which is incredible, and they've opened themselves up to me to present a brillia..." [+] Reply
"I really like a bunch of the songs on this record. I like the vibe of it even if it does get a tad repetitive by the end (which is why Liberation is extra nice). I love the style of the vocals, although I feel the production gives it the feel of being a bit buried. Overall one of the more consist..." [+] Reply

"Most of these songs are from Hounds of Love and Aerial so it has many great tracks. Also the production and audio is absolutely flawless. Really digging this. I have to start listening to Kate Bush more." Reply

"This album has some really great moments. It kicks off with 5 really strong tracks in a row. Then we get some good sassy humor with songs like "Pink Sunglasses" and the really great "For the Birds." Those are my favorite kind of Miranda songs. It feels like there is some filler though, especially..." [+] Reply
"This is yet another reason to regret that I always buy the cheapest washing machine." Reply
"Unlikely to be the AnCo album to convince non-fans, and probably won't be a personal favourite for many fans either, but it contains loads of what the band had done well in the past. How much you will enjoy it, probably depends on a few things. One, what you think of that recurring vocal trick th..." [+] Reply
