AMG Review of Whole

Blake Butler
All Music Guide

Very quiet, distortion-free, melodic, and often uplifting music coupled with delicate vocals make this album very soothing and relaxing to listen to. This record unfortunately only has six tracks, but it seems like the shortness of the album adds to its effect. Good music to sleep to, or to just lie down and think. The album's most shining moments would probably come in "Lullaby," although they are all very well done. If you are into Joan of Arc, Ida, or bands of that sort, you would most definitely enjoy Pedro the Lion.
