CRITIC REVIEWS

The 405

As Date Palms, Kowalsky and Jakobsons have succeeded in making what could be their best work.

80
AllMusic

By the gorgeously spare album closer "Exodus Due West," The Dusted Sessions has silently, carefully taken the listener through a barrage of landscapes, some interstellar and some earthly.

79
Pitchfork

Even with 11-minute tracks, there’s not a moment that feels wasted; with so many different sounds and ideas invoked over The Dusted Sessions’ 44 minutes, there’s a clear idea at work even if it’s hard to quantify exactly what it is, which is where their brilliance lies.

musicOMH

The Dusted Sessions seeks to encapsulate the essence of the vast landscapes the band experienced and does so quite incredibly.

70
PopMatters

The Dusted Sessions is a careful and wonderfully executed trip through two sides of discovery, through the sunburst of awe and the shadow it leaves behind

70
Consequence of Sound

The Dusted Sessions leaves you unsure of what you’ve just heard, like seeing a natural wonder for the very first time and feeling like a speck in the vastness of it all.
