"I'm a Stranger Here is a top-notch album that sounds like the band is finally reaching their potential and seizing this opportunity. If New West is savvy, they'll market this record directly to all the disappointed Avett Brothers fans out there. The ones who are bummed that the band's Rick Rubin era is driving the Brothers further into "all sensitive love ballads all the time". The Devil Makes Three is not a carbon copy of that band by any means, but they bring a similarly loose, punky feel to their brand of Americana music".

"At times, as in the folk and country stomps "Hallelu" and "Spinning Like a Top," the band sounds like a feisty mix of the Lovin' Spoonful and Country Joe & the Fish on a careening moonshine-and-coffee jag. That's not a bad thing. It adds up to The Devil Makes Three's most consistent and balanced album yet".
