  2. 9.0 |   The Line Of Best Fit

    A perfect pop record for laying back in the tall grass, the sun kissing your face and letting all your troubles fall away

  3. 8.0 |   Uncut

    Print edition only

  4. 8.0 |   Bowlegs

    Woods are not rushing to the big budget studios anytime soon, and when they can jump from the joyous ‘Suffering Season’ to the quirky ‘Deep’ at will, why would they?

  5. 8.0 |   PopMatters

    They are doing something truly unique in an often uncreative genre that in 2010 is verging dangerously on self-parody. That they’ve done it on their own terms is something very special, indeed

  6. 8.0 |   Pitchfork

    Where previous records got distracted with lo-fi detours or lengthy workouts that didn't translate from the stage to tape, At Echo Lake is far more concise

  7. 7.0 |   Tiny Mix Tapes

    As long as the band can keep putting out ramshackle, homespun folk-rock this intimate and likable, whether or not At Echo Lake proves to be a boost to a breakthrough really doesn't matter so much

  8. 7.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    Woods have refined their wanderings into more concise thrills, but at times lost what made them unique

  9. 6.0 |   Under The Radar

    While it doesn't deviate much from what's come before, At Echo Lake is still just the blast of hazy modern psych-folk that you'd expect

  10. 6.0 |   Blurt

    Had this record employed more of the energy of a Woods gig as they exist in 2010, this could have been a contender for one of the best rock albums of the year
