Entertainment Reviews:

Uncut - p.114
4 stars out of 5 - "In precise, poetically natural language, to the squeaks of finger-picked guitar, he presents love as a series of crime scenes, emotional murders to investigate."
Mojo (Publisher) - p.116
3 stars out of 5 -- "[The album] arrived as an acoustic whisper in an age when grunge raged loudest."
Paste (magazine) - "Showcasing Smith's formative sound and quietly devastating songwriting, ROMAN CANDLE may be his most underrated work..."
Pitchfork (Website) - "[I]t contains some classic Smith songs....The sound is here...unmistakable from the first note: the defeated whispers of the vocals [and] the deceptively intricate guitar work..."
