Rating: - Cunning Foxes!
This is certainly an interesting album but it will not be to everyone's taste. I recommend that you forget the hype and just listen to it - this is one of those albums that you will either love immediately, or not. I would say that it takes a few listens and is well worth the effort. The vocals (and harmonies) are really lovely and the music is fresh and adventurous. The opening track does the rest of the album no favours; I found it more rewarding to start with track 2 and then listen on, returning to track 1 at the end (I hope that makes sense!). Well worth taking a chance on - each track is a surprise and there are not many albums around these days that deliver that.

Rating: - Don't believe the hype
Disappointing, meandering, just doesn't get going or into a groove. Reminds me of a band trying too hard to be different but never hitting the right notes. I tried to like it but it's really very dull and sounds like a demo.

Rating: - One of my 2008 faves
One of my 2008 faves, never far from my stereo. The only downer is it hasn't got the song "Mykonos" on it, it would have been a 5 star album then!!! worth a listen.

Rating: - "Just plain awful..."
Avoid. Avoid. Avoid. So-called music "critics" are wetting themselves with excitement over this, and I can only assume they don't get out much! It's just plain awful. Soulless. Tuneless. Useless. Say goodbye now to the Fleet Foxes. They won't be around for much longer.

Rating: - If reverb was talent
If Reverb was talent and Beach boy parodies were new then this would be a work of unparalleled genius. Dont get conned like I did. Strictly for people with record collections that start in 1993.
