  2. 7.0 |   Uncut

    The Acorn remain elusive. Print edition only

  3. 7.0 |   All Music

    Even though Vieux Loup is markedly different from its predecessors in the Acorn's catalog, it feels like a natural, graceful evolution, and is an elegantly understated, resonant listening experience

  5. 6.0 |   NOW
