Amy Millan Press


Some great reviews came in for the new Amy Millan album 'Masters of the Burial', which came out in December. The Stars/Broken Social Scene singer combines her own compositions with some great covers such as Death Cab For Cutie's 'I Will Follow You Into the Dark' and Richard Hawley's 'Run For Me'. The album was CD of the Week in The Sunday Times (see left) on 13 December.

‘… a warm, rounded and altogether lovely album.” – Mojo ***

'... sumptuous...' – Uncut ****

“a beautiful collection of warm, folksy tunes… A fine album” – THE LIST

“these country tinged lullabies do indeed contain a seductive and sedate magic” – INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY

“A lovely, late-night listen” – TELETEXT

“…scratch the surface and there’s a veritable treasure trove of heartbreak and lost love. Masters of The Burial is bursting with subtly intelligent ideas…” – THE LINE OF BEST FIT

“…its melancholy heart shimmers in similar terrain to Bon Iver or Smog.” – BBC
