Rolling Stone (p.68) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "There's emo in the tortured lyrics and E Street Band in the arrangements, both appropriate for a Jersey crew."Spin (p.128) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "[T]his New Jersey quintet unfurls a series of banner-waving, punkish anthems that, with its E Street Band-through-a-blender production, convey a raw, deeply palpable blue-collar sympathy."Entertainment Weekly (p.57) - "With thrash-and-burn riffs, shout-along rants, E Street Band-style blue-collar blues, and tin-can acoustics..."Alternative Press (p.113) - 4.5 stars out of 5 -- "Titus Andronicus kick up the Boss influence and rock out like a punked-up version of Neutral Milk Hotel."Q (Magazine) (p.105) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he aggro is underpinned by sturdy, sing-along melodies, while Stickles's serrated wail ensures the music cuts emotionally deep."Blender (Magazine) (p.64) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "[T]heir debut owes its tidal sweep to a heart-tugging Springsteenian grandiosity in the form of mournful harmonicas, heraldic 'Be My Baby' drum intros and lung-busting refrains as buoyant as sea chanteys."Clash (magazine) (p.95) - "[N]ine tracks of garage squall....'The Airing Of Grievances' is not without its moments most melodious, as Pogues-like passages evoke images of sing-alongs in sweaty basement clubs."1.14781

Spin (p.92) - "[I]t's a big-idea album that feels small and personable, even as it's kicking you in the shin."Mojo (Publisher) (p.95) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he last-minute-on-Earth urgency makes it gauchely thrilling..."Paste (magazine) (p.58) - "These heart-on-sleeve polemics are bookended by soliloquy and recitations of Abraham Lincoln's speeches that pop and hiss....An album that's both uncompromisingly bleak and impossible to ignore..."Pitchfork (Website) - "New Jersey's Titus Andronicus split the emotional atom with anthemic chants, rousing sing-alongs, celebrations of binge drinking, marathon song titles, broken-hearted duets, punked-up Irish jigs, and classic rock lyric stealing."Clash (magazine) - "Some of the riffs are quite incredible, and the general effect of the whole album is that the listener will want to weep and dance simultaneously. Simply brilliant."The Rolling Stones (p.72) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he band fires away, all martial snares, raging guitars and spit-spraying hollers, punk noise carved by folk roots."0.9964901
