Bergen Record 12.3.08 | | If you add up every band that critics have linked to their music (Jeff Buckley, the Verve, David Bowie, Pink Floyd, early Genesis, Roxy Music, Ours, Yes etc.), you'll start to understand how complex the sound actually is — and how difficult it is to pinpoint. Nailing it down to a single genre is even more difficult. | | full review |
| | ADVENTURES IN TWEED (UK) Our Little Hymnal | | This band is a unit, a whole sound, not just the sum of its parts. To pick out any particular sound is a difficult procedure, the instruments are melded together, as if held by an invisible force. And this is all in the first minute of 'Our Little Hymnal', an album of intense highs and beautiful lows, uproarious noise and somber laments. | | full review |
| Bootleg Magazine | | Jersey's Holler, Wild Rose! is sweeping orchestration that defines the spirit of indie rock at its best. A combo of Sigur Ros and Explosions in the Sky, it's a lifting and tranquil lark through what rock music does well - exceed the current state. |
| | KCRW Mathieu Schreyer's Top Ten Albums of 2007 | | Mathieu Schreyer, the KCRW host of ''On the Corner.'', lists Our Little Hymnal among the top ten albums of the year. | | full review |
| Puddlegum.net Review by Champersnova | | Despite the young existence of this seven-piece, they have already been compared to several masters of these genres in a big way. Their debut Our Little Hymnal is one of the wonders came out in 2007; promising a winning music cemented with heart! A Hymnal that is encouraging, moving, somewhat provoking and gripping all the way. | | full review |
