Personal record

"Personal Record is so jam-packed with clever wordplay and fleeting, sometimes contradictory emotions ("I'll Never Be Happy Again" is followed by the calisthenic skip of "Stare at the Sun", a song about being dizzyingly happy) that it occasionally feels as much like a short story collection as it does an album. But the tight, buoyant pop arrangements keep it from getting bogged down".

"Det er fristende at beskrive Eleanor Friedberger, der her udgiver sit andet solo-album, ved en Patti Smith-sammenligning. Stemmen, hendes udseende og retro-inspirationen peger den vej, men overordnet holder Eleanor Friedberger sig langt mere mainstream med sikre, ligefremme melodier, der aldrig får de store kunstneriske anstrøg".
