The album was produced by Brian McTear. Pond rewrote many of the songs during the recording sessions, eventually bringing in a drummer.[6]
Critical receptionEdit
Exclaim! wrote that "the winning pop disc thrives on the honeyed tones of Pond's voice and poignant arrangements."[7] The Philadelphia Daily News likened the "folky, string-drenched arrangements" to those of Jeremy Enigk.[1]PopMatters called the album "aching, melancholic, orchestral pop that bordered on gloom and despair without crossing over into the realm of the ominous."[8] In a review of the band's next album, The Green Fury, The A.V. Club deemed Measure "magnificent."[9]
