"Ashley Monroe refuses to choose sides in the feud between commercial country and the "alt" variety. Her third LP imagines a 2015 mainstream by reflecting what it once was - Loretta and Dolly in the Sixties, sure, but also Emmylou in the Eighties and Reba in the Nineties".

"I en dæmpet og traditionel opsætning med enkle violiner, klaver eller steelguitar leverer hun sine sukkende sange, så man mærker, hvad ordene siger. Ikke teatralsk, bare præcist midt i klicheens ramme: »You said 'goodbye, it's not the end/And if you need me, I'm still your friend'/Well, that's easy for you to say/Cause you caught it by the handle/And I caught it by the blade«. Albummet igennem mærker man Monroes stik, mens hun trækker videre i tilværelsen på den bugtende baslinje under 'On to something good'".
