Reviews
4 stars out of 5 -- "The album finds longtime SY acolyte Beck at the production desk -- and a stunningly impressionistic approach he takes too....This is a sumptuous record...", "Awash in sparkling guitars and the occasional odd sound effect, DEMOLISHED THOUGHTS is a noisenik's idea of California dreaming...", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "On 'Circulation,' Moore brings front-porch thunder in an ode to playing old records...", Ranked #18 in Magnet's '20 Best Albums Of 2011' -- "A gossamer, almost incorporeal sigh of an LP from an underground iconoclast....THOUGHTS is never anything less than ethereal.", "Beck produces, and he's in full MUTATIONS mode, creating a warm backdrop for Moore's strummy laments.", Ranked #23 in Uncut's '50 Best Albums Of 2011' -- "DEMOLISHED THOUGHTS posited another way forward for Moore, recasting his signature sound in appealing folksinger garb.", "The arrangements are often complex...with improvisation within the melodies and a lyrical depth that is beyond pure contemplation or imagination.", "The wall of urgently strummed, shifting chords that opens 'Orchard Street', and the shimmering, dissonant climax of 'Blood Never Lies' are brilliant acoustic extensions of Sonic Youth's density and intensity."
