This Desert Life does little to break with the increasingly well-worn Counting Crows formula, though songs referencing the sun outnumber those referencing the rain, three to two.

This is a great album its on par with both Recovering The Satellites and August and Everything After. The songwriting is phenominal, the hooks are huge, and you'll be singing it in no time. The Counting Crows manage to keep what makes them original while still changing and experimenting with new ideas.

This Desert Life very well may be the group’s best effort to date.

If I had to compare it to their past releases, which I have done for days, I would say this is my favorite among them.
