    Born Horses feels like a logical progression, the band’s luscious drift and bittersweet arrangements blossoming into widescreen vignettes of love, loss and revelation, but delivered with a poise and scale previously unseen. [oct 2024, p.58]

    Mercury Rev have created so many otherworldly symphonies in the past, but there’s very little of their previous ingenuity or vision on Born Horses. Everything shimmers and sparkles in roughly the same way, with very little to distinguish one song from the next.

    More grounded and yet more transporting than many of their later albums, Born Horses is ample proof that Mercury Rev are still making moving, thoughtful, exciting music -- and like most of their best albums, there's nothing else quite like it.
