  1. 8.0 |   musicOMH

    A thoroughly unique product. Not without fault, the album is a solid, cohesive work – and sign of The Cave Singers’ electrifying potential

  2. 8.0 |   Paste Magazine

    Ultimately, Naomi doesn’t stray too far from The Cave Singers’ previous output, but she, like any good muse, will captivate, invigorate and satiate

  3. 7.0 |   The Line Of Best Fit

    A quintessential indie rock band that proudly occupies a space dominated by tube amps, tambourines, and boxes of old baby clothes

  4. 7.0 |   All Music

    They've shifted their energy into producing the aural equivalent of a cloudless summer day

  5. 7.0 |   PopMatters

    An understated winner

  6. 6.0 |   DIY

    Nice. Competent. Completely forgettable

  7. 6.0 |   Bowlegs

    Naomi is a motorway drive in the middle lane, occasionally veering into the right path. It does not offend, but it does not grab you by the throat and shake you to your core either

  8. 6.0 |   The 405

    With some re-prioritising, cultivating and time on the cutting room floor Naomi's feet would've found ground

  9. 6.0 |   No Ripcord

    Naomi is a decent album, not a good one. It might be forgotten as soon as you're done listening to it

  10. 6.0 |   Blurt

    Certainly, there’s a fine line in-between a record bearing cohesion and every song being a clone of the tune before it, but Naomi suffers, even if slightly so, from multiple personalities

  11. 5.8 |   Pretty Much Amazing

    On Naomi, the Cave Singers don’t really fail at anything; however, save for a couple of moments, they don’t offer up anything all that memorable either

  12. 5.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    They don’t commit enough to the sonic range which they eventually bring to bear, focusing too much on middle-of-the-road indie-folk

  13. 5.0 |   Consequence Of Sound

    The varying topics and often-indistinct lyrics miscommunicate, making this record better suited for easy listening than deep delving
