"Fatherland is folky, largely unadorned, though Capers, bizarrely, flirts with cabaret. But while the singer's reference points are otherwise flawless (Joni Mitchell's Blue, Elliott Smith's Either/Or), and the songs possess a pleasing vulnerability, Okereke's shaky voice means that Fatherland is far slighter than it might have been".

"experimented with so many different styles over his career, it's nice to see him scale back and attempt something new. Stripped of harsh digital fuzz and angular guitars, Fatherland is an honest, satisfying window into the heart and mind of the man himself".
