The reviewer must be basing his review only on Devendra Banharts discography. If he was being objective he would have given it a 2.5 or 3, because this album is still better than a lot of the monotonous Indie Folk that is being beaten to death these days. For me it was actually a little better than that. Definitely not one of Devendra's better albums but this album certainly has enough in it to do well more than hold my attention. I think the reviewer should revisit this album when he's in a better state of mind. Sleeping through the album and then listening to the album buzzed does not put you in the right state of mind to pick up on all of the details Mr. Banhart puts into his work.
