"There are some moments of real beauty here. The first time Ryan comes in on vocals in "North Country Ride," gliding alongside Pattengale, creates the most assured, peaceful moment in the Milk Carton Kids' now-storied catalogue. But the tenderness of "North Country Ride" does not dismiss the fraught elements of "Wheels and Levers". I Only See the Moon can handle all of it".

"Taken together, I Only See the Moon's more diversified approach is an engaging one that, frankly, evades the potential slog of some of the Kids' prior LPs without surrendering heartache, nostalgia, or slow tempos and grace in the process".

"With 'I Only See The Moon' The Milk Carton Kids have reconnected with their original ideals, but they are not repeating themselves. Their newfound confidence allows them to filter their more adult life experiences through their songwriting and musical skills to provide a new chapter in their story. If you are a fan of the band you will be very pleased, and maybe a little relieved, at what they have managed to achieve, and if you are new to their music then 'I Only See The Moon' is as good a place as any to acquaint yourself with their oeuvre".
