Riderless Horse
“Nina Nastasia turns trauma into beauty on Riderless Horse”
Outlaster
“The singer-songwriter embellishes her sparse, haunted folk sound with strings and woodwinds to superb effect.”
Run to Ruin
“When Nina Nastasia's latest record groans into view, it sets you up to expect the gloomiest entry in an already dark catalog: the mourning strings and her opening line00 "We never talk about the things we witnessed"-- suggest an album detailing the rural nightmare so many (urban) art-folk songwriters dwell in, where the men are monsters, the women are widows and the graveyards are above average. ”
Riderless Horse
“After a 12-year absence, the singer-songwriter returns with a raw, unadorned celebration of survival.”

On Leaving
“Despite moving from Touch and Go to Fat Cat, the underrated songstress again worked with Steve Albini on the creation of her latest album, a sparse record that eschews the eclecticism of 2003's Run to Ruin and pulls back on experimentation.”
