    • 68 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score

    • Mojo
    • 63 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A classy veneration of the Byrds, Bob and Band, exquisitely seasoned with phlegmy harmonies and subtle instrumentation. [Mar 2004, p.108]

    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score

    • 70 Critic Score
    Marrying the softest hushed-breath vocals with a lush musical sweep at once both intimate and panoramic, All Harm Ends Here captivates from the off. [Jan 2005, p.94]

    • 79 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score

    • Mojo
    • 76 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Not the Holy Grail that was promised... But considering what material is present, the set plays like a fairly compelling musical narrative. [Dec 2004, p.120]
    • Mojo
    • 52 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The lyrics veer towards simplistic, but Destiny pull it off, mainly through muscular production and stunning vocal interplay. [Jan 2005, p.97]
    • Mojo
    • 81 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Hilarious, stoned hip hop drooling with ideas. [Feb 2005, p.100]

    • 70 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Tread lightly past the handclaps and keyboard quacks to find a collection of uncomfortably honest damaged-goods love songs set in the cold hours of the a.m. [Dec 2004, p.102]
    • Mojo
    • 66 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
