    The resulting album is archetypal Shearwater — elegant, literate, and emotionally stirring.

    Probably Shearwater’s best record to date. After two decades, they’re probably not expecting any crossover hits, and The New World won’t be the album that breaks them into the big time, but Shearwater fans – and hopefully newcomers – are guaranteed to be entranced by its stately beauty.

    A bleakly entrancing set. [Aug 2026, p.113]
