The Fader.com (“Woodfriend†Freeload Of The Day ) : “Milesbenjaminanthonyrobinson. It’s a mouthful, but we’ve been getting used to it (calling him M-Bar or just Miles) ever since his eponymous debut arrived in our mailbox a couple weeks back. It’s full of moody stormers like the righteous “Woodfriend”, and his bio is biblical in wasted opportunity and dramatic recovery, which is one of our favorite rock archetypes.†http://www.thefader.com/articles/2008/4/30/freeload-miles-benjamin-anthony-robinson-woodfriend
Pitchfork Media : “ The album’s first single, “Buriedfed”, lives up to those impressive connections, pouring a woodsy, deceptively upbeat folk song through the damp, woozy atmospherics of Horn of Plenty. The proper setting could be a rowdy bar as easily as that record’s quiet bedroom.â€

Time Out New York : “ Local singer-songwriter Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson, whose sidemen have included members of Grizzly Bear and TV on the Radio, plays garagey pop with winning psych-era melodies.â€
