About
You Ain't No Picasso on "Lazy Bones":
"I hate to use a [word] in the title to describe the song, but lazy fits it to a tee. Coming across as a Page France Jr., Brown Recluse Sings have their basis as a drifting acoustic pop tune, and fill in the pieces with everything from harps and keyboards."
Skatterbrain on Brown Recluse Sings:
"Their songs are the type of songs you immediately fall in love with, the melodies of acoustic guitar and keyboard are very warming and always seem to put me in a good mood."
Badminton Stamps on "Western Meadowlark":
"And for your downloading pleasure, what has no doubt been my number one song during this lazy hazy last month of summer: an effortlesss, washed-out lullaby coo from Brown Recluse Sings."
Renaissance Men Don't Surf on "The Calm Before the Storm":
"The Calm Before The Storm" shows no indication of a storm whatsoever. In fact, the song is pure summer bliss right from the get-go. The sunkissed lyrics blossom over and over again (0:39, 0:43, 1:15, 1:20...). Try not to bob your head.
Listening Post (Wired.com):
"Brown Recluse Sings are a Philadelphia quintet that draw from contemporary indie like The Shins, Belle and Sebastian and Page France, as well as vintage pop like The Zombies and The Kinks. There's something lovely in the way they'll casually throw trumpets into the song, in the way their choruses stack up like so many cupcakes. "Margo" is a highlight but the downloadable "Lazy Bones" is no less fun, like a Unicorns song set in a calm clover field."

Mystifying Oracle is a cool song. Keep up the good tunes!

"We all admire the spangled acrobat with classical grace meticulously walking his tight rope in the talcum light; but how much rarer art there is in the sagging rope expert wearing scarecrow clothes and impersonating a grotesque drunk! I should know." (Vladimir Nabokov)
