BBC "Preaching to the Fire is a bold and endearing masterpiece...A definite contender for album of the year. " DELUSIONS OF ADEQUACY "Unconscious Pilot is Hydrocodone in hi- fidelity" SPONIC "Forever Altered drifts through gray and sombre landscapes but its melancholia is sophisticated rather than melodramatic." NPR "Intoxicating...beautiful...elegantly constructed from first to last, Preaching to the Fire is a strong contender for album of the year." LEONARD'S LAIR
