Critical praise

In a review by NME in May 2009, Laura Snapes said, "Not since Bon Iver's 'For Emma, Forever Ago' has there been such an accomplished album of torch songs...if you can spend a little time with 'Romanian Names' and not feel duly captivated by its sun-kissed longing, West Coast harmonies and occasional krautrock minimalism, your heart's probably made of stone."[1]

gollark: You could carry around extra battery capacity in a backpack or something.
gollark: Maybe they punched someone they disagree with.
gollark: Nonaggression.... something?
