Reviews

This album has memorable tunes and great singing by Neko Case. Even a non-country music fan would love this album. Considered as her best effort yet, Fox Confessor Brings the Flood is well-crafted and well-prepared resulting to wonderful songs and considered as one of the best and stronger releases for 2006. --Raine 06 January 2007 24:40 PDT
