  1. 8.5 |   Crack

    It speaks volumes on his talents not just as a great leader but also as a truly unique songwriter. In the classic sense. This kind of prodigy only comes around once or twice in a generation

  2. 8.0 |   Uncut

    Rønnenfet emerges as a sort of apocalyptic soulman, intoxicated and on the edge of megalomaniac. Print edition only

  3. 8.0 |   NME

    It lurches from piano jazz ('Every Child (Portrait of Wellman Braud)') and Bowie-esque plastic soul ('King of Song') to demented early Bunnymen vibes

  4. 8.0 |   Tiny Mix Tapes

    Rønnenfelt is trying his hand at jazz, and occasionally belting out britpop hooks, but sings in a low, drunken snarl and slurs his words in the confusion of individual experience

  5. 7.0 |   The Quietus

    At times This World is a challenging listen - but there is no doubt that broadening his scope has added new strings to his bow; namely the ability to adopt breezier sounds without losing any of his emotional clout

  6. 6.5 |   Beardfood

    Less agressive, more sprawling music, and he's surprisingly suited for this line of work as well

  7. 5.6 |   Pitchfork

    While he is often quite good at conjuring up vividly disquieting imagery, it’s rarely enough to keep your attention. But somehow, This World Is Not Enough is too cluelessly conceived and sloppily executed to get very mad about it

  8. 5.0 |   Earbuddy

    “King of Song” almost gives the impression of Marching Church as a fully realized project, but unfortunately This World Is Not Enough’s other songs never live up to its high mark

Iron & Wine  Light Verse

Finds Beam doing what he does best, refining those songwriting touches and instrumental backdrops that are present in his most captivating work Under The Radar

Iron & Wine  Light Verse

You might assume, given the title, that beam's seventh full-length album as iron & Wine is lightweight and whimsical. Actually it's pretty magnificent. Print edition only Mojo

Iron & Wine  Light Verse

Light Verse rejoices in its playful details. Print edition only Uncut
