doleful lions out like a lamb

"Out Like A Lamb is a gem of neo-psychedelic orch-pop, with chiming guitars and close vocal harmonies. The sound of dreams" (UNCUT)

"Works like the velvety "Saturday Mansions," psychedelic "I Can Take You To The Sun," subtle "Dear Lazarus" & wailing "Tanah Lot" establishes Out As A Lamb the cutting edge masterpiece that Yankee Hotel Foxtrot never was."(Power of Pop)

"There are moments during Out Like a Lamb that make you wish that R.E.M. followed up Automatic For the People with an album like this one, but R.E.M. are long dead, and it's time for someone else to pick up the slack. Out like a Lamb isn't perfect, but at least they tried to be perfect. Go listen to "Surfside Motel" dozen times and let yourself fall in love with the Doleful Lions. " (popmatters.com)

" This is a very special album." (fufkin.com)

"The oft-gorgeous Out Like a Lamb balances craft and heart in ways few of the Doleful Lions' peers can muster. " (High Bias)

"Out Like A Lamb is chock full of music that will touch and warm your heart on the very first listen. Pop music just doesn't get much better than this... " (babysue.com)

"Out Like a Lamb is an inviting and often fascinating album. " (All Music Guide)
