Reviews4 Stars Out of 5 -- "More than Just a Decent Nu-Folk Album, Babel Is a Great Pop Record.", "The acoustic guitar strumming is broad and ferocious, the track 'Below My Feet' provides a new definition of majestic...", "The band has mastered the emotional gut-punch of quiet/loud dynamics, exploding from low-murmured harmonies into full Appalachian freak-outs." -- Grade: A-, "The songs are still powerful and moving, and hearing them incites the listener to stomp and yell along in passionate fits.", 3 stars out of 5 -- "This is ultimately comfortable listening, befitting folk sounds of a resolutely un-freak variety.", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "The fact that these guys are able to do big-rock catharsis with humble tools is part of the thrill."
