It is the only Dawes album to feature keyboard player Alex Casnoff. ==Reviews== ''Nothing Is Wrong'' received favorable reviews from many music critics and Metacritic gave it a Metascore of 80 out of 100, based on 14 reviews. ''Uncut'' placed it at number 39 on its list of the "Top 50 Albums of 2011."〔http://stereogum.com/891311/uncuts-top-50-albums-of-2011/list/〕 Andrew Leahey of Allmusic told that "those looking to rock out won’t find many headbanging opportunities here" because the album "works well as driving music, particularly if the scenery outside your windshield matches the sepia-toned music."〔 At ''American Songwriter'', Paula Carino found that the release "succeeds on its own terms, and will appeal to fans of solid roots-rock songwriting."〔 Steven Hyden of ''The A.V. Club'' affirmed that on the album "Dawes comes far, and appears to be only getting started."〔 Beats per Minute's Johan Alm evoked that "beyond the band's development as musicians and the excellent production, the growth and increasingly personal nature of Taylor Goldsmith’s songwriting is what makes ''Nothing Is Wrong'' the success it is. "〔 At ''Glide Magazine'', Chris Calarco touched on that "with ''Nothing is Wrongs ability to fire poignant and lasting musical arrows straight from a heart of gold, Dawes signals they are here to stay."〔 At ''The Independent'', Andy Gill called this "a thoughtful, mature conclusion to an album that seems to summarise one of the more welcoming trends in American rock."〔 The Line of Best Fit's Janne Oinonen alluded to how the album has "an apt title", which is because "the outcome is an album that sounds skilled and accomplished rather than truly inspired."〔 Alan Shulman of No Ripcord said that he would not "hesitate to recommend this record to anybody", and stated that as a listener they "may not love it, but you’ll probably like it, and that’s enough."〔 At ''Paste (magazine)'', Wyndham Wyeth proclaimed the release as being "something truly special."〔 Chris Martins of ''Spin'' affirmed that even "though restlessness is the dominant lyrical theme here", yet the release "sounds familiar and comforting" at the same time.〔 However, Drowned in Sound's Al Horner told the release "paws so affectionately at the Americana idols that inspired it that you glean nothing of the band that penned it", which he recommended it "would have been a better record had that time been spent eking the emotion out of their own lives, rather than their record collections."〔 At ''Rolling Stone'', Will Hermes highlighted that "this tuneful but sometimes bland set could use more of that", which is from "Taylor's current side project, Middle Brother, shows his wilder, less studied side".〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nothing Is Wrong」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
