Reviews"The essential quality of his music is no different, but the banjo picking draws out a bit of folkiness, and piano shifts things slightly from capital-R Rock to singer-songwriter territory.", "His latest LP is an endearing collection of slow-burning, dreamy arrangements, which find the singer wistfully contemplating the shifting nature of identity.", "'Lost My Head There' stands out not just as the longest piece on the 12-track LP, but also the lushest, coating its piano strut with rippling sound effects and subtle horns that swell and dissolve...", "The album sounds even more loose-limbed than its already-tranquil predecessors -- a subtle shift that relies on Vile’s aptitude for melody every bit as much as its stripped-down aesthetic.", "Vile includes subtle odes to other influences, like the lyrical nod to Sam Cooke’s 'Wonderful World' in the Wurlitzer-laden 'Dust Bunnies' and his Bob Dylan-esque intonation on 'Wild Imagination.'", "His midnight rambles on this ho-humming tome of lowercase sapience could just as easily inspire a cult as lullaby a crib...", "The Work of a Singular Artist Coming Into His Own."
