Reviews"These Florid Meditations on Surety and Doubt Are Earth-Shaking if You're a Believer...", "The scrape of a guitar pick on wire is pristinely captured as poems of love, family and spirituality unfold....It's actually quite remarkable.", "His Melodies Are Deceptively Simple but Utterly Beguiling..."-Grade: A-, "ME FIRST slides gently rolling beats and Grandaddy-esque swoosh under irresistible choruses and slide guitar." - Grade: B+, 3 stars out of 5 - "These are blissfully executed missives of faith and love - both spiritual and corporeal - anchored by Stevens' spartan banjo-led arrangements and a voice that's tremulous yet brave.", "The title track and closer 'The Transfiguration' sprawl beautifully, rounding out the record with chants so emotionally gripping it's unholy....Stevens has crafted a heavenly record.", Ranked #24 in Uncut's "Best New Albums of 2004"-"A Delirious Baptism of Mystical Chamber-Pop...", 4 stars out of 5 - "All the requisite signifiers are in place: spare, brittle melodies; a hushed intimacy, where every squeak of fingertip on strings resonates."
