"Deliciously detailed indie rock ... Musically, too, the Mountain Goats - a four-piece at the moment - are in excellent form. Darnielle's singing is far suppler than when the Mountain Goats was him and a guitar, and he has melodies to go with it: Done Bleeding is a melancholy swell, the title track a country knees-up with delicious harmonies, and throughout the record, drummer Jon Wurster is a secret weapon, bringing details that add but never distract".
