Press Quotes

"Intended as an "album of singles" in favor of diminishing their normal proclivities toward conceptual grandiosity and musical adventurousness, Aldhils Arboretum marks a peculiar change of pace for Elephant 6's most prolific popsters." All Music Guide

"The tracks are blanketed by lead singer Kevin Barnes' endearing, occasionally infantile, melodies and colorful, mosaic-like instrumental arrangements." Stylus

"[Aldhils Arboretum is] a healthy dose of shag-a-delic tunes, certain to induce...dancing..." Rockpile
