3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Aimlessness can be a rite of passage for twentysomethings, and Crutchfield shines brightest when she transforms that fear into frenetic pop joy...", "IVY TRIPP is slicker than its predecessors, but Crutchfield’s emotional rawness hasn’t been glossed over.", "Her choruses are catchy and immediately memorable, ripped from some cosmic songbook which all of us are innately aware of. Songs like 'Poison' and 'Air' seem like tracks you’ve already tapped your fingers on your steering wheel to before you realize it’s your first time listening to them.", "Certainly Crutchfield’s biggest leap forward to date, at least musically. Although the record is no less sparse than her previous albums, it boasts far more diverse instrumental detail: static-fuzzy distorted keyboard drone; wistful piano; lullaby-like organ; and a cheerful drum machine..."

Third full-length from this introspective songwriter delivers a more confident reading on the band's nakedly honest style.
