Reception

edit

Double J described the album "kind of like those people who somehow look incredible, even though they're in the midst of an emotional breakdown. You know there's pain there, but it's so hard to see it beyond the veneer of perfection that you just presume everything is okay. But the lyrics here tell us that it is not." The concluded the review saying, "A band of any age would consider When We Fall a monumentally accomplished album, as a debut it's astounding. Perhaps future records will see them inject a bit more grit into their sound, in which case they will be unstoppable."[3]

Denise Hylands from Stack Magazine said "Hauntingly beautiful four-part harmonies will sweep you away through songs filled with humour and melancholy on When We Fall". Hylands called it "A wonderful debut album highlighting their indie folksy-country sound, inspiring songs and magical voices."[4]
