4 stars out of 5 -- "Recorded around one microphone at Bird's Illinois barn and steeped in deliberate old-world atmosphere, HANDS OF GLORY still sacrifices none of Bird's cerebral elegance...", 3 stars out of 5 -- "Bird already has something unique going on -- the classical moments that give his modern, literate pop songs all their sweetness and delicacy."

Recorded around a single microphone, this companion piece to March 2012's Break It Yourself sounds both out of time and incredibly immediate.
