  1. 8.2 |   The AU Review

    While it could be argued that Indigo Meadow won't win the band any new fans, it's another epic chapter in the career of one of the mightiest psych-rock bands of the last few years

  4. 7.7 |   Paste Magazine

  5. 7.5 |   The 405

  7. 7.0 |   All Music

    The Angels are masters at sounding simultaneously cool as a block of ice and hot as hellfire, but the cunning pop melodies are the real key to this album's success

  11. 6.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    The majority of Indigo Meadow's 13 songs following one of two patterns: the mid-paced, percussion heavy rocker or the 12-string led Sixties-inspired blues number

  12. 6.0 |   DIY

    For the most part the Angels charitably continue to breath life into a ragged genre with a looseness and playfulness that belies their serious business name

  13. 5.0 |   Rolling Stone

    It's a pleasant-enough swirl; more so whenever vintage organs pipe in. But it never expands your mind

  14. 4.9 |   Pitchfork

    Indigo Meadow isn't a window into the modern world; it's an escape from it. Bullshit is fine if you can sell it, but the Black Angels have finally laid it on too thick
