"Geography may serve as a touchstone for much of Calexico's music, but The Thread That Keeps Us carves out a landscape all its own." NPR
"Calexico have made records that sound like this one before, but they've never made one with quite this much fight in it." Pitchfork
"Remarkably consistent and prolific." Salon
"Rousing single: "End Of The World With You" is true modern indie-Americana." Stereogum
"After nine albums, it takes effort to make a record that sounds as vibrant as this, without losing the very basis of your original appeal. Calexico have managed it."
The Guardian
"They encapsulate the anxiety and unease that comes with the world in which they live, through the forum of profound lyricism and distorted guitars." Paste Magazine
"The sonic threads keeping Calexico together are here. They're just a little looser now, with songs feeling a bit more immediate this time." Relix
"It pulsates with energy and light, like a real life breathing being. The arrangements are lush and layered and the band sounds excited to explore the wide range of sonic elements of these songs. The Thread That Keeps Us is unlike anything we've ever heard from the seven-piece band. It is a product of this moment and practically forces us to be present when we listen to it." No Depression
"By turns gentle and bold, traditional and boundary-pushing, The Thread That Keeps Us is another fine example of Calexico's ever-broadening horizons." All Music
"...pound for pound, this is their strongest set of songs in years."
**** Q
"If the band has upped the musical chaos, there still is an unashamedly
romantic feel, as if they believe humanity's innate goodness will get us out of this mess."
**** Mojo
