Comments:

There should not be anything in the lead not mentioned in the rest of the article. (GA criteria) - In other words, everything that is in the lead must be found in the sections. Please ensure that this is the case.
Jeff Weiss of the newspaper used "Tie Me Down" as an example, noting that its sounds to "a saccharine sappiness and contrived tone that feels at odds with the otherwise organic-sounding album." - "...its sounds to..." Grammar problems.

Summary: I have done some minor copy edit to this article during the course of this review, however, the lead requires work as per comments above. I will allow seven days for these issues to be resolved before making further decisions.

Thank you for all the work to get this article to GA standards. I am satisfied that it now meets all the requirements for a Good Article, and I am happy to pass it as such. -- S Masters (talk) 04:26, 17 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
