"LeBlanc's lonely, elastic voice, which can go from a ragged, triumphant croon to a distant warble within a single phrase, feels like it's fighting against not only the weight of the world, but the engineering booth as well, more often than not flailing away beneath the towering waves of admittedly lovely but unyielding atmosphere, and coming up predictably spent".

"Peppered with pedal steel, talk of judgment and hushed, mournful pleas to "lead me now to the righteous path", the atmosphere is eerie rather than unsettling - a cross between Chris Isaak's ghostly twang, a plaintive Neil Young, Spiritualized's rapt harmonies and the Wicker Man soundtrack. But at heart, LeBlanc is a melodies man".
