Artrocker Magazine - Later, As The Dust Resumed single review
Brushed drums, an angelic falsetto and twinkling electric guitars lead us through this regretful but also highly beautiful meditation of a single. Despite the band name there are no firearms discharged during the course of this single, but that doesn't mean you won't be blown away (ho ho ho) by their mysterious and compelling nature.

Webcuts Music
Like the soaring sonnets of Wild Beasts crossed with the urban malaise of The National, there’s something about The Rifle Volunteer that reminds us of The Royal Albert Hall.
Ornate and breathtaking, ageless and proud, there’s an unmistakable grandeur ingrained through their music.
