Rolling Stone - p.78

4 stars out of 5 -- "[B]allads like the mesmeric 'Pretty Wings' prove he's an auteur in his own right, with surprising digressions and crescendos that mirror the songs' conflicted emotions."

Spin - p.90

"Maxwell is coming back with a flourish....[The album is] grittier and less New Age-y than his previous work..."
Billboard (p.28) - "Full of heart-pounding melodies and true-to-life love stories....BLACKSUMMER'SNIGHT is a testament that Maxwell hasn't lost a beat."
XXL (Magazine) (p.117) - "[T]he irrefutable allure of 'Bad Habits' and the honeyed harmonies of 'Love You' are Maxwell's reminder that some subjects remain timeless."
Pitchfork (Website) - "Heartbreak is a constant in popular music....[This] is a deeply moving and evocative record that finds the singer expounding on this universal feeling like few can."
