AbsolutePunk's Gregory Robson said the album "is the sound of something truly astonishing beginning to take shape" with "near-flawless roots-rock offerings that drip with such a defined sense of soul, grit and harmony, it feels nearly criminal to label this album contemporary."[1] Pemberton Roach called them a "rootsy quartet" with a "tasteful vibe", and an "earthy sound."[2] At Filter, Kyle MacKinnel described the album as "straightforward" and a "refreshing reminder of our roots" that "notches a victory for the believers."[4] The Line of Best Fit's Melanie McGovern predicted the release would "be as easily digested and perhaps more soul baring as one would hope."[5]Stereo Subversion's Dan MacIntosh wrote that "where ever this North Hills hideaway is, it sure sounds like the place to be for those in search of a quality music retreat."[7] At This Is Fake DIY, Martyn Young said the album was "full of subtle wonder, and in its evocative charms you can easily see how Dawes have become so feted".[8] However, Doug Freeman of The Austin Chronicle derided the album saying that "working a sound this classic doesn't allow for many surprises".[3] A PopMatters review said the album's sound was "too obvious in its attempt to fit into a certain mold", and called the effort "a last-ditch effort to hop on a bandwagon".[6] Track listing{{Track listing| headline = Tracklist | total_length = 54:56 | all_writing = Taylor Goldsmith, except where noted | title1 = That Western Skyline | length1 = 5:58 | title2 = Love Is All I Am | length2 = 5:16 | title3 = When You Call My Name | length3 = 4:44 | title4 = Give Me Time | length4 = 3:18 | title5 = When My Time Comes | length5 = 5:08 | title6 = God Rest My Soul | length6 = 4:58 | title7 = Bedside Manner | length7 = 4:11 | title8 = My Girl to Me | length8 = 4:51 | title9 = Take Me Out of the City | length9 = 5:11 | title10 = If You Let Me Be Your Anchor | length10 = 4:25 | title11 = Peace in the Valley | note11 = Goldsmith, Blake Mills | length11 = 6:56 }} Personnel
