2006, Merge
Buckner's eighth full-length soars and swells around his signature trifecta of enigmatic poetics, swirling melodies, and that voice - a soothing drawl that's somehow road weary and buoyant all at once. The melodies are fleshed out by an all-star band: Doug Gillard (Guided By Voices, Cobra Verde), Kevin March (GBV, Those Bastard Souls, Dambuilders), J.D. Foster, and Steven Goulding (Mekons, Graham Parker, Waco Brothers). Fresh and evocative, poignant and real, it documents "the modern age wrapped up in the frustrations and sympathies of a wanderer" - Austin Chronicle.

Andrew Mashburn
The lead off track has all of the elements that make me really enjoy a Richard Buckner song. It has a thick and driving rhythm guitar, and a stream of cryptic one-liners. So what if the lead guitar in the intro sounds like the same lick from the beginning of "...& the clouds've lied" only sped up? His records are going to have their own subtle charms, even if his style does not change very much, if at all. The first track high falters soon after, with some decent but forgettable numbers, then "Window" rescues the record from mundane, and could almost be considered rock territory for Buckner standards. After comparing the songs off "meadow" with the live versions that I heard last October, I realized that I prefer experiencing a set to listening to some of his more polished studio albums. This may not be the album that wins him great acclaim, but fans will appreciate the new songs.
