PerspicaciousCriticMay 3, 2007QUAID and KOSTAS G: Both OK Computer and Fourteen Autumns & Fifteen Winters are stunning achievements. Now play nice, boys.

BDubMay 9, 2007I'm cool, because i said OK Computer is a crappy album. You see what makes someone cool is taking one of the most heralded albums of the last twenty and then saying it is crappy. See what i mean? Now bask in my coolness. Oh, and yeah, this TS album is good too, and you can believe in my opinion because i just bashed a great album , see how easy that is? Now isn't this nice?

[Anonymous]May 13, 2007Lyrics are good and the Walkmen-esque guitar sonics are markedly different from most alt-rock, but between the vocals and the limited percussion (esp. "I Am Taking the Train Home," "...the Invisible Boy," and "Walking for Two Hours") they sound just like a more mature and Scottish Coldplay.

mikeyfApr 28, 2007send your $ to their label to underwrite music lessons for the ts's. proof you really should'a gone on a diet, sang in an undecipherable dialectic & learned a couple of chords. you too could make stupid girls swoon . for fuck's sake, save your hearing. poser kunt rock.

QUAIDApr 29, 2007Great album, but to think that OK Computer is a great achievement, think again. It's easily one of the worst albums ever. How could anyone possible compare this album to that crap.

EdLeisurewearMay 14, 2007Stunning achievement from Messrs Graham and co. - a nice cross between Mogwai and Belle and Sebastien - not just because they're both Scottish, well...kinda. I look forward to the fifteenth autumn...

Jan 17, 2015It takes a while to fully understand the real meaning of the songs, but (as a whole) FA&FW works so cohesively well that the total is more important than its parts. And it's also a strong and solid debut, for a melancholic but powerful band.
Awards & Rankings
-
The density of the Twilight Sad's sound evokes wide open spaces, yet the louder they are, the more intimate they sound.
-
Having heard their first EP, it's not quite as much of revelation as it would have been, but it's still pretty darn good.
-
As exhilarating as Fourteen Autumns is at its most anthemic, the vividness of the lyrical themes ultimately carries the record over.
