Reviews"CIVILIAN's sound is round, with each component blending into the other rather than one dominating the rest....The music definitely gives a feeling of relaxation, but it also has a haunting quality that doesn't allow for complete comfort.", 3.5 Stars Out of 5 -- "Epic and Assured....It's Impressively Well-Wrought Music...", Ranked #8 in Magnet's '20 Best Albums Of 2011' -- "The album conjures active and powerful emotions....CIVILIAN leaves a distinct sensation of melancholy reserved for those of us with an abiding sense of aloneness.", "The title track brings it all together -- a spooky, pretty lament that builds, improbably, to a shivering climax of Neil Young-ish guitar squall...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "Wye Oak have raised their game with this third LP, awash with beguiling harmonies and folk-shoegaze textures."
Additional InformationWye Oak's third album is their best yet; passionately autumnal and full of memorable indie rock songs.
