Spin: "The guitar-heavy result embraces experience without fetishizing it. Singer her own songs, Faithfull sounds more relaxed -- if no merrier -- than she has in years."

Entertainment Reviews:

Rolling Stone - p.77
3 stars out of 5 -- "[H]eavy with lost love and Faithfull's honey-over-gravel voice....Faithfull, like New Orleans itself, proves hard times make for very good music."
Spin - p.72
"The guitar-heavy result embraces experience without fetishizing it. Singer her own songs, Faithfull sounds more relaxed -- if no merrier -- than she has in years."
Uncut - p.80
3 stars out of 5 -- "Marianne's thespian touch works its magic on The Shangri-Las' 'Past Present Future', a turning teen angst into a poignant reflection of age."
Paste (magazine) - "She kicks off HORSES AND HIGH HEELS with the ominous chords and spiritual misgivings of 'The Stations' by the Gutter Twins....It's a perfect showcase for Faithfull's distinctive voice..."
Record Collector (magazine) - p.86
4 stars out of 5 -- "Elegiac closing ballad 'The Old House could sit on any Bad Seeds album, possessed of a subliminal emotional pull which stays long after the closing swells of its crashing grandeur have subsided."
