Entertainment Reviews:

Rolling Stone - p.146

Included in Rolling Stone's Top 50 Records Of 2004 - "[She] trills gorgeous melodies with poetry..."

Spin - p.63

Ranked #40 in Spin's "40 Best Albums of the Year" - "With her pint-size voice and full-size harp, Newsom baffled and charmed indie-folk fans this year..."

Uncut - p.98

4 stars out of 5 - "So freshly individual is the 22-year-old Newsom, it's like decoding a Picasso or retracing Escher's op-art illusions."

Mojo (Publisher) - p.78

"Her songs sound ancient and childlike, part Appalachian folk reverie, part Roald Dahl yarn."

Mojo (Publisher) - p.110

3 stars out of 5 - "Over and above her gorgeous, spare arrangements for harp, piano and harpsichord, it's Joanna Newsom's voice that really steals the show....This is a weird, dark record."
