Reviews"His Most Accessible, and Musically Consistent Album...", "...The singer tackles tropicalia and '60s soul with aplomb, his boundless talents in full flight." - Grade: A-, "This is a lovely, beautifully recorded disc. The guitars are rich and clear....CRIPPLE CROW is a masterly record, and Banhart has a beautiful voice, full of teasing, warbling microtones.", Ranked #28 in Mojo's "The 50 Best Albums Of 2005" - "An eclectic hippy opus with glitter on its face...", Ranked #17 in Magnet's "The 20 Best Albums Of 2005" - "The album encompasses the sort of breadth - from psychedelia to tropicalia to baroque pop - you thought died in the early '70s.", 3 stars out of 5 - "...Joyful melodies on charming, fully realized tunes...the soundof a talented space cadet finding his bearings.", 4 stars out of 5 - "Veering between Spanish folk, strutting blues and campfire incantations, Banhart thins out the clotted intensity of his early work....CRIPPLE CROW is a mature work from a fascinating man.", "Laced with splashy ballads, one of them sung in impeccable Spanish....Enthralling music that embraces you...", 3 stars out of 5 - "He further fleshes out the quavering song-sketches that appeared on his earlier releases. Drawing on harmony-laden '60s pop, Indian-tinged psychedelia and Brazilian Tropicalia for light and shade."
