Reviews4 stars out of 5 -- "With finely drawn chamber-twang arrangements....There's a clever bit of real life poking through the fiction.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "Darnielle is a narrator as instantly recognizable as Raymond Carver or Charles Bukowski, his primary subject being doomed relationships, his primary architectural too being a strident acoustic guitar.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "These succinct, sparse vignettes could double as short stories, Darnielle's evocative imagery giving the likes of 'San Bernardino' a cinematic feel.", 3 stars out of 5 -- "Darnielle dresses songs of romance, heartache, and travel in elegant leaps of language.", "It's an ambitious offering to be sure, but even when Darnielle shifts gears, he still reaches his destination.", "With drums, strings, pianos, amps and backup singers, this is the biggest-sounding record ever for a band that used to consist of one guy on acoustic guitar...", 4.5 stars out of 5 -- "HERETIC PRIDE succeeds because of its focus on the details....PRIDE's music is more ornate and well-wrought than LONELY.", "There's plenty of wry humour and provocative metaphor for Goats fans to chew on, plus some fantastic titles..."
