Reviews"The songwriting is strong....The quality of the voice, the angular approach to the guitar, the twisted and discontented lyrics -- all are present.", Ranked #14 in Uncut's '50 Best Albums Of 2011' -- "With memorable songs that simultaneously sounded both crafted and spontaneous.", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "It's more apparent than ever that his best songs stand up as timeless portraits.", Ranked #10 in Entertainment Weekly's 'The Top 10 Albums Of 2011' -- "Kurt Vile is Philly's stoner-rock prodigy, a prophet of damaged beauty...", Ranked #4 in Spin's 'The Top 40 Albums Of 2011' -- "Conjuring gorgeous layers of cascading guitar, bindle-stiff folk-blues progressions, reverb haze, and hypnotic heartland-rock melodies.", "With alternately anxious and serene guitar....Thanks to John Agnello's warm, enveloping production, SMOKE RINGS FOR MY HALO feels almost suspenseful.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "He settles on a mood: chilled-out but guarded, and wrapped in gorgeous folk-blues guitar-picking.", Ranked #39 in Rolling Stone's '50 Best Albums Of 2011' -- "Vile's hippie folk lays melancholic mumbling over psychedelic ambience..."
