Apr 30, 2025Though less immediate and accessible than his earlier work, Time Indefinite is another career highlight that pushes Tyler boldly into the future.
-
Apr 23, 2025With Time Indefinite, William Tyler offers a fresh and uniquely compelling way to affirm that it’s OK not to be OK: these are humbly majestic anthems for our anxious age.
-
UncutApr 23, 2025One of the most compelling albums Tyler has made. .... Time Indefinite seems to stare into the heart of what the country is tight now, in all its fragmented, polarised turmoil; the state of the nation in perfect sync with Tyler's own troubled state of mind. [May 2025, p.26]

May 5, 2025Time Indefinite aches with uncertainty and a flavor unbound to just one page of the American folk songbook. Hymns fall apart note by note; instrumental breaks feel deliberately sun-faded; heirlooms sound inaudible. William Tyler has never sounded so boldly adrift.
-
Jul 10, 2025It’s a haunted album, but a human one too. William Tyler doesn’t just soundtrack the anxiety of our time—he maps it, walks through it, and finds something like peace on the other side.
-
Jul 2, 2025Responses to Tyler’s previous release, Stratosphere (Merge, 2023), were mixed (more accurately, pretty much everyone liked it but me), but Time Indefinite is so deeply engaging and flat-out beautiful that pretty much anyone with even a mildly adventurous taste in music will be playing it all summer.

May 15, 2025We won’t be sipping backyard beers to this album, but we might need this journey even more.
-
Apr 30, 2025Tyler uses major-key guitar melodies judiciously, instead of sprinkling them throughout, which makes their shapes more memorable: After the blown-out tape distortion of opener “Cabin Six,” his six-string enters at the start of “Concern” like morning sun through a window.
-
The WireApr 23, 2025Time Indefinite feels closer to a documentary soundtrack than a regular solo album. And it tells a poignant story. [May 2025, p.63]
-
MojoApr 23, 2025Somehow, he and producer Jake Davis have conjured an utterly compelling account of Tyler's lurching mental health. [Jun 2025, p.87]
