Reviews
"The rainy-day requiem 'Light as a Feather' and bluesy swooner 'I Wouldn't Need You' exude an elegant sort of speakeasy allure...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "The emotional imprint of THE FALL moves beyond the pining, wistful tones that are her trademark....'December' is the simplest yet most touching song here...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "At times, Jones inhabits the same atmospheric hinterland as 'Mazzy Star' or the gothic fatalism of 'Neko Case'. In other words, she's rarely sounded so interesting.", "Album centerpiece 'It's Gonna Be' serves as the perfect highlight, with Jones' unmistakable voice draped in slapback echo and underscored by a tom-tom heavy beat...", 3.5 Stars Out of 5 -- "The Result Is Avant-Roots Music That Rocks, Albeit Gently.", "A Hot-Blooded Soul Album from the Queen of the Even Keel.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "The last vestiges of smoky blues have been blown away....THE FALL contains more than a few copper-bottomed classics..."
