What the critics say...
Rolling Stone (p.98) - 3 stars out of 5 - "Mason blends precocious lyricism, spare, jangly guitar, and a world-weary voice..."
Uncut (p.92) - 3 stars out of 5 - "An album of quiet ferocity and moral indignation..."
Alternative Press (p.152) - 4 out of 5 - "Mason was meant to ramble down the sort of back streets where old souls dwell."
CMJ (p.10) - "Mason displays that emotional vocal aesthetic that helped make Oberst an indie-rock kingpin. However, Mason's offerings brim more with old blues and folk flavors..."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.95) - 4 stars out of 5 - "[H]e sings with committed restraint and plays outspoken guitar - Dick Dale twang, kerrang, sweet strum -- whatever works for hard lyrics which sweep from domestic strife to the far horizon..."
