This is from a Pitchfork review of Magnolia's The Wooden Birds

http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/13070-magnolia/

That precision and the process seem to have pushed [Andrew] Kenny in an interesting musical direction, too, seeing as so much of Magnolia recalls Lindsey Buckingham at his least manic, specifically the strange little ditties that fill Fleetwood Mac's Tusk and Mirage, nestled between the bigger hits. The resemblance is almost uncanny on songs such as "False Alarm", "Hailey", and the brief "Hometown Fantasy", which contains a heart-grabbing minor turn that's a perfect counter to its initial country feel.
