Reviews4 stars out of 5 -- "‘A Hero’s Death’ is largely cloaked darkness. The slow and sombre ‘You Said’ is a mid-album highlight...", "The Album Showed a Darker Flowering of Their Talents Into a Rowdy and Percussive/20 Post-Punk.", "Their gothic tendencies are heightened, and new reference points are introduced: Pet Sounds-era Beach Boys, Scott Walker and Leonard Cohen.", "The Year’S Most Full-Throated, Stouthearted, Old-School-Guitar Rabble-Rousing.", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Their palette is wider and more pronounced. If anything, their chiming, noisy guitars and messy arrangements only fit their highfalutin aspirations even better.", "Sprinkled with ’60s armchair pop and ’80s post-punk references, this is a gloomy outdoor stroll record -- but a very special one at that.", "Subversive, non-conformist and melodious, this record has the credentials of a classic rock and roll album."
