“The Antlers magnify private sorrows to overwhelming scale, creating grand anthems.”
—The New York Times
“The band occupies a space in the lower atmosphere: floating and free,
but recalling what the ground feels like, too.”—The New Yorker
“Silberman shows that his voice is as versatile as any instrument in the band.”
—The Washington Post
