Do Make Say Think's songs are uniquely structured, thanks to lead guitarist Justin Small's ability to emit cool chord lines that emote without growing histrionic, imbuing the album with an eerie sense of purpose even as it works through the postrock genre's typically stormy blend of ponds and swells. As calm as Winter Hymn Country Hymn Secret Hymn sounds in comparison to its genre counterparts, one can't help but sigh when it ends with "Hooray! Hooray! Hooray!" an autumnal beauty that starts with Small and Ohad Benchitrit playing an acoustic guitar rhythm together and finishes with an over-the-top melody, complete with harmonizing chorus, that's too joyfully happy for its own good. -- Mosi Reeves
