Review

Rolling Stone (p.70) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Hamilton Leithauser's sore-throated vocals can be surprisingly moving, as on the impressionistic street-life tale 'Lost in Boston'..."
Uncut (p.133) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he five-piece have developed an urgent, clanging hybrid of post-punk and new wave....Its vibrancy and colour shine through."
Alternative Press (p.204) - "[With] 50's-style guitar reverb...and occasional dives into the Ramones' punk pool..."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.102) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "The real beauty...lies in the cacophony of noise: chiming guitar, purring organs and hymnal piano, all drizzled with off-kilter vocals."

Title Note

The follow-up to their 2004 album BOW + ARROWS, HUNDRED MILES OFF finds the Walkmen refining and expanding their stylistic palette. The Walkmen are often incorrectly lumped in with the garage and new-wave revivals, and while one can certainly hear elements of the Velvet Underground and Joy Division on HUNDRED MILES OFF, the ragged poetry of Bob Dylan's late-'60s work looms large here. This is not to say the album lacks its share of indie guitars and punky energy, but these elements are balanced with a poignant yearning and an artful sense of composition that sets the album, and its creators, apart from the indie rock pack.
