Golden

"On Golden the songs most likely to put slightly interesting spins on clichés, or at least to inhabit them in a vivacious enough way to grab your attention, are those with lead or co-lead vocals by Hillary Scott ... an overall sedate, relatively predictable album".

"Melodierne og sangene er - deres poppede karakter til trods - forglemmelige, og resultatet af den åleglatte indpakning er, at absolut intet hægter sig fast i hukommelsen og øregangene efter endt lytning. Producer Paul Worley har i samarbejde med bandet selv sørget for, at udtrykket på albummet er så pænt og tilforladeligt, at det nærmest kun kan anbefales til forældre til kolik-børn, der desperat mangler en måde at lulle afkommet i søvn på".

"So cheerful is Golden that it seems a little churlish to complain that the songs here aren't grabbers: they're slow burns, designed to sink into the subconscious through repeated plays on radio, in-store sound systems, waiting rooms, and bumper music".
