"[Alexander McKenzie] debuts with this extremely passionate, uncommonly beautiful album, which exhibits not only her strong compositions, but also her fantastic voice. The narrative songs about lost love, sorrow, uncertainty, strength and weakness grab you by the throat and captivate like a good, if languid book. Melancholy with a capital M, with precisely the right notes and finesse from her underpaid band mates. Their poverty could soon be a thing of the past as the world discovers the beauty of her work and acquires the album legally."
