Industry Reviews 8 (out of 10) - ...It's an album of shameless good-byes: to Manhattan, to love, and (most painfully) to not giving a shit. Successfully repressing his Sonic Youth tics, Donahue starts with goofy, SMILE-era Beach Boys and heaps on even thicker strata of strings and brass than SEE YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE... Spin (12/01/1998)
...their fourth effort feels like a watershed, the point where their heady mix of orchestral pop, roots rock, psychedlia, prog, choral, and chamber music finally crystallizes into something special and damn near ineffable... - Rating: A- Entertainment Weekly (09/25/1998)
