Daylight Saving

Spin (11/99, p.194) - 7 out of 10 - "...Appendix's impluses prove a point of grace. It's stark and moody, quiet and slow, with unexpected touches - female harmony vocals, recorder toots, and banjo plinks - that evoke a dippy north-country charm....Plaintive, but hardly plain."
Wire (10/99, p.64) - "...barren mountain ballads and ship songs filled out with spectral harmonies and dislocated acoustic guitars....A forward looking, non-cliched folk album which still remains very much in the tradition."
Alternative Press (12/99, p.86) - 4 out of 5 - "...devastatingly troubled music that sticks in your mind long after the record has ended....Obsessed with decay and the cycle of life....[this] may be one of the saddest albums you'll hear this year."
