All Music
The individual tunes hold their own, but Monovision is a record where the whole means more than the individual numbers, since LaMontagne strikes a very specific mood -- one that's reassuring, even soothing -- and then manages to sustain it until the end.

A stripped-down slice of acoustic rock to soothe the soul.

The Washington Times
here he takes a few steps back and the outcome is stunningly refreshing.

13th Floor
This may not be Ray Montagne’s most challenging work in his catalogue, but it’s one of the most satisfying.

Radio 13
It is a phenomenal album that fits with bourbon in the still of night or coffee in the morning.

relaxed, breezy, and full of good memories.

LaMontagne has filled "Monovision" with warmth and pure emotions on songs that, even without all the bells and whistles, will ring true in ears and hearts.

American Songwriter
There’s soothing, but never clichéd warmth in this retro-style. Both LaMontagne’s craftsmanship in the composition of these songs and his easygoing, unaccompanied playing will come as comfort food to established followers who should welcome this most organic return to his roots.

Riff Magazine
Monovision is like a great meal in a diner: both familiar and filling. As a songwriter, Ray LaMontagne seems to be getting even better at locating the emotional core of his music and stripping everything superfluous away. The result is an album with a visceral emotional kick to it, and a lovely way to while away the time on an overly warm summer afternoon.
