"Guitarist William Tyler returns backed by an all-star band that notably includes Wilco's Glenn Kotche and Megafaun's Phil Cook, summoning a wide range of moods and telling stories without vocals ... Like his holographic figure on the album cover, Tyler lets himself become a part of his surroundings throughout Modern Country, encouraging his listeners to explore for themselves".

"Modern Country is vast in scope and ambition, but tightly written and expertly arranged. The sprawl of motion, texture, and color is reined in by immense, emotive lyricism and dynamic group interplay, making this musical "letter" to his vanishing nation well worth repeated listening".

"Americana too sublime for words ... Modern Country is a beatific and expansive ambient record daubed in acoustic and electric guitars, analogue oscillations, some really scary bells and no words; its meaning can be fluid".
