Reviews
"The lyrics hew closely to contemporary poetry's oblique emotionalism -- heart mingled with wit." -- Grade: A, 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "The Furnaces are up to their usual tricks, making unexpected mash-ups of their own ideas....Even at their most adventurous, the melodies are undeniable.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "WIDOW CITY is the band's most raucously funky effort yet, full of twisty-turny jams with grooves lifted from Prince and guitar fuzz inspired by Led Zeppelin.", "Widow City Is Endlessly Enjoyable, Yielding New Detail Every Time You Slip Through Its Song Mazes."
