    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Songs hang in the air, implying rather than asserting uncanny dimensions. Dylan’s voice, again, is quite beautiful, with a control and nuance so many thought he’d lost. [Jul 2023, p.97]
    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The musical and emotional ground covered here is remarkable, evidence of an artist who can locate joy inside pain, and whose adventurous, modernist, fearful funk can be movingly expressive. [May 2020, p.88]

    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It's the garlanded ritual folk of Kan Me ("May Song"), however, that underlines this is a record of changing seasons and transitional states. Accept the offer of tea but prepare to lose days in the process. [Aug 2022, p.90]

    • 84 Metascore

    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Bruce Springsteen began making this album in 2010--like golden reflections late in the day, it's been worth the wait. [Aug 2019, p.88]

    • 80 Critic Score
    The stated modus operandi--everybody is leading and following--results in some fascinating new angles and delicious surprises on familiar material. [Apr 2011, p.107]

    A keeper. ... This is still a terrific entry point into a band who repay obsession. [Oct 2018, p.87]

    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    They really do sound like a band more than a group. [Jun 2019, p.92]

    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It's the emotional, cathartic journey of the chief protagonist that captivates the most. [Oct 2023, p.86]
    • Mojo
    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Ten is a classic of the grunge era, its super-sized anthems and introspective pieces powered by Eddie Vedder, a Jim Morrision for the plaid shirt brigade. [Apr 2009, p.116]
    • Mojo
    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Instead of meeting fire with ire, there's an attempt to provide calm, clarity, a space to contemplate what really matters. [Feb 2020, p.93]

    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Ultimately, the record triumphs via Rolling Blackouts; deep inhabitation of their music, ans the space of its creation. [Jul 2018, p.92]
    • Mojo
    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    As ever, the sonic palette is richly clean, the harmonies stacked, and Jerry Douglas’s dobro an empathetic, keening presence in constant dialogue with the singers, now the dominant solo instrument in the ensemble. [May 2025, p.87]
    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score

    • Mojo
    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Over and over again, Pratt hovers on the brink of revelation, yet Quiet Signs puts down a code, that, brilliantly, it's not quite possible to break. [Mar 2019, p.89]

    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Melt!, a twisted dancefloor lament for the polar ice caps, is a reminder of Owen's ability to mine techno gold. But the highlight is Corner Of My Sky, a memorable collaboration with compatriot John Cale. [Jun 2020, p.91]
