"The best tracks on In Plain Speech achieve transcendence, making use of the full band's range of instrumentation as well as Fohr's vocal intensity. For all her darkness, Fohr actually sounds somewhat hopeful this time around, and for good reason ... Like the title suggests, Fohr is frank about what she's getting at. And like any struggle one manages to confront, she seems better for it in the long run".

"On her meditative and mesmerizing new album as Circuit Des Yeux, Haley Fohr embraces collaboration, working with members of Bitchin Bajas and other Chicago neighbors instead of going it alone. Accordingly, her music opens up, and the songs on In Plain Speech escort you toward stillness and awe".
