Fences / Press

“Fences' MySpace headline reads "FOREVER BUMMED." Although the Seattle band — led by songwriter Christopher Mansfield — has drawn positive national attention, there's still truth in hyperbole. Melancholy and regret run through Fences' self-titled debut, which draws on Mansfield's songbook from 2004 to the present.”

“4 STARS "...assured hooks and astute observations of instant minor classics and the best of the rest dicuments vulnerable screw-ups with complementary precision."”

Barry Walters - SPIN Magazine Album Review

"Mansfield has chronicled on his confessional debut album, Fences, which bring together [Elliot] Smith's delicately wistful melodies and Morrissey's beautiful melancholia."
