"Sonically spectacular and lyrically memorable, The Silver Lining is the first album by Ottawa`s own Eric Vieweg. It`s an infectious collection of tender and tortured tales about lonely hearts and night crawlers, minimum wagers and those trying to make it. Vieweg moves it from heart wrenching in Skin & Bones to loud pop-rock in Westboro Beach. Resuscitate flashes me back from Dinosaur Jr.`s Without a Sound and Hotels & Phonebooths is classic Jayhawks. Rich with electric, pedal steel and gorgeous acoustic guitar, banjo, cello, piano and lap-tapping percussion, The Silver Lining is an outstanding contribution to the alt-country/indie rock sound popularized by Danny Michel, Kathleen Edwards, Jim Bryson and Golden Smog." -- Sylvie Hill, XPress Magazine.
