Reviews

  • AMG All Music Guide: Dreamland - Rick Anderson's review: "there are some great moments here, including the aching "Let Your Love Decide" and the slightly creepy "Valium Summer"; fans of the Camera should like this album just fine."
  • Rolling Stone: Dreamland - Roni Sarig's review: "it's full of the subtle grace and gorgeous songcraft that's marked his work all along." 2 stars.
  • CMJ: Dreamland - Steve Ciabattoni's review: "Dreamland is clearly the best marriage of Frame's somber and sensitive soul style and plush atmospheres." (May 24, 1993)
  • AMG All Music Guide: Frestonia - Stephen Thomas Erlewine's review: "Frame's meticulous production and sophisticated pop/R&B songwriting blends effortlessly together, providing a seamless sequence of songs." 3 stars.
  • CMJ: Frestonia - Alex Ellerson's review: "imagine a more mid-tempo Smithereens with strings and less raucous guitar." (December 11, 1995)
  • AMG All Music Guide: High Land Hard Rain - Ned Raggett's review: "Whether listeners want to investigate further from here is up to them, but High Land, Hard Rain itself is a flat-out must-have."
  • Rolling Stone: High Land, Hard Rain - David Fricke's review: "the debut album by Aztec Camera, is the kind of pop record you were afraid they didn't make anymore." 4 stars.
  • CMJ: High Land Hard Rain - Eric Chappe's review: "There's much to discover and enjoy on Aztec Camera's wonderful debut. Its rich pleasures will continue to unfold with each successive play." (October 11, 1982)
  • Rolling Stone: Knife - Joyce Mellman's review: "Knife is mostly a drag - muddled, unwieldy lyrics and musical inertia." 2 stars.
  • CMJ: Knife - CMJ review: "This Knife cuts deep into Roddy Frame's heart and mind and opens it for our inspection. He's a remarkable songwriter, intellectually capturing emotions and injecting them into words, and a fine musician and singer as well." (October 1, 1984)
  • AMG All Music Guide: Stray - Stewart Mason's review: "Shorn of the pretentiousness that mars some of Frame's earlier lyrics - written, to be fair, while he was still in his mid-teens - the lyrics on Stray are the first that stand up to Frame's remarkable melodic sense." 4 stars.
  • CMJ: Stray - CMJ review: "Frame has always shown a songwriting maturity well ahead of his age, and this fourth effort displays the progression of his talents to the next plateau above a masterful pop composer."
