"Track a Tiger lures you in with its Low-like vocals, then lulls you with an Iron & Wine-y twang." - Magnet

"We Moved Like Ghosts takes the best elements of Yo La Tengo and pre-Mellon Collie Smashing Pumpkins boy / girl vocals and washed out hazy guitars and leaves behind the chaff. This album won't rock your socks off - nor does it aim to - but in a world of self-imitation and tedious pretension, Track a Tiger have made an album of highly polished melodic pop gems that truly outshines their contemporaries." - Verbicide

"Track a Tiger is a Chicago band picking up comparisons to mega stars in the indie-rock world such as Yo La Tengo, Low and Iron and Wine. This is because there is a genuine experimental quality to this lo-fi, highly creative band on We Moved Like Ghosts. This outfit's mix of quiet music and unique instrumental arrangement is immediately apparent with the brief, but beautiful opening track Saint About To Fall and continues throughout the album. The songs are atmospheric, fresh, fuzzy, warm and all around delightful. I would describe Track a Tiger as an unpretentious electro- folk rock band with a really nice marriage of male and female vocals. A fantastic new release!" - The Big Takeover

"The best quality of Track a Tiger is its ability to conjure thoughts of Low, Yo La Tengo and Iron & Wine and then so convincingly, so smoothly, make the sound its own. On We Moved Like Ghosts, the band's newest on Deep Elm Records, the first song is a brooding, Low-like warning called Saint About to Fall, and it's immediately followed by a more upbeat, indie-rock gem called Don't Make a Weapon; the boy-girl harmonies on both are crushing. Light follows, an atmospheric beauty, and then the more traditional, but just as pleasing, pop song All These Accidents, and afterwards it's unbelievable that you're only four songs in." - New City Chicago

"Track a Tiger aren't resting on the laurels of their debut one bit. We Moved Like Ghosts has more dreamy indie-pop for you and yours. The influences haven't changed much (the fuzzed-out bliss of Yo La Tengo and Wilco is a huge wellspring), but the band has gained in confidence and ability to wield its predilections on even stronger material. The bleed from the standout Light into another standout All These Accidents is masterful. The former opens with spoken-word French and is peppered liberally throughout with sparkling keyboard effects, and the odd bedfellow of a banjo's gentle clucking. From the pedal steel, strings and horns on Sometimes Love Runs Out to the sunny, seductive groove of With Stars Down, Track a Tiger appears close to felling the elusive prey of wider acclaim." - Pop Matters

"Track a Tiger masterfully achieves subdued but impacting compositions sweetened with many instrumental accruals that don't lose site of the fundamentals of a good song. Even better, We Moved Like Ghosts alternates between contemplation and buoyancy with nary a hint of awkwardness. So the jaunty, road-ready Don't Make a Weapon, with its bewitchingly blemished melodies, segues naturally into the floor-sweeping acoustic guitars on Light that are coupled with a wall of twinkling electronic sound. The fact Track a Tiger is able to wring such mirthful noise from lo-fi conceptions is a noteworthy achievement. Bless the few, the proud, who offer hope in unlikely packages." - Nuvo Weekly

"Dreamy indie pop from the heartland of post-hardcore. A sure sign that Deep Elm are spreading their branches into the indiest of realms, Track A Tiger would've never sat comfortable alongside the likes of Pop Unknown and Camber. Forget about abrasiveness or angularity, the fantastically named Track a Tiger have far more in the common with the melodious, hushed tones of American Analog Set or the harmonious delicacy of Joy Zipper's boy-girl interplay. Deeply engaging and undeniably subtle, We Moved Like Ghosts is a slow-burner of an album that could warm even the coldest of days." - Big Cheese

"Deep Elm's shift to alt-country and folk influenced bands has been a really nice change. I'm sure it's not been a conscious thing, but with 500 Miles To Memphis and now Track a Tiger, the label has moved on from the more intricate emo bands like Appleseed Cast to something a little more delicate, honest and real. There's a real honesty on We Moved Like Ghosts that I really like. It's a bit ethereal at times, jangly at others, but the two vocals juxtapose each other in such a sublime way it makes this record quite difficult not to like. It's more dreamy than dreary...a very good thing indeed." - Punktastic

"Sometimes poppy, sometimes mellow and always very melodic, We Moved Like Ghosts can evoke several different emotions. Track a Tiger does not demand much of the listener except that they sit back and enjoy. It is not simple mind you. There are enough sounds to entertain subsequent listens and it is this musicianship that makes the album. In a style similar to Yo La Tengo, Jim Vallet and Kristina Castaneda harmonize together extremely well. When singing solo Vallet has a bit of a country feel that is reminiscent of Ryan Adams, providing a nice change of pace. It's a nice album that will just make you feel good. From time to time that's kind of nice." - Spill Magazine

"If there is such a thing as polished lo-fi music, then Track a Tiger is a shining example of it. Born of the musical noodlings of Chicago school teacher Jim Valet, 2007 sees the band branching out, coalescing into a unit and offering us the delightfully mellow We Moved Like Ghosts. It is the sound of a still-young band exploring their dynamics, expanding their sound and simply having a good time. The warm acoustic backdrop give the disc a laid back charm, while the smooth harmonies flow easily over and through the jangling melodies. All crisply produced, yet still down-home, We Moved Like Ghosts should give hope to musical noodlers everywhere that they, too, may end up producing a minor gem." - Amplifier Magazine

"We Moved Like Ghosts from Track a Tiger does just as its title suggests: songs glide leisurely by, unconcerned yet quite purposeful, to some ineffable spectral end that remains beyond concretization. The drums - played brilliantly throughout - run the show, directing acoustic guitars and soaring synthesizers in buoyant, spirited songs that work best at the boundaries of genres and as three-minute monoliths. Snatches of dialogue work themselves in at the edges, tying the songs back to their sources. The vocals and instrumentation coexist nearly flawlessly: the keyboard's atmospherics shroud the ever-dueling vocalists in a shoegazing fog, creating a sort of unified front. In the end, nothing stands outside of the songs themselves. Correspondingly, the album often seems like one great song, or, better yet, variations on a theme. Its hazy presence is ideal for a summer release, deserving play alongside that paragon of the hot season, Iron & Wine's Our Endless Numbered Days." - Delusions of Adequacy

"I believe calming music like We Moved Like Ghosts is healthier and more effective than most prescribed medication. Track a Tiger spellbinds with comforting mellow gold sounds on their sophomore release which will undoubtedly be stuck on nonstop rotation in your stereo. The band's sound is contemplative and downright charming. Cool to the touch, the aptly titled album saunters through ten tracks of soul numbing sweetness. Much like Yo La Tengo, Ida or Low, Track a Tiger plays cushiony melodies that you will easily cuddle up close to. Low-key tracks emit a melancholic and reflective sound that will have you quickly reflecting on portraits of past. My favorite track, Don't Make a Weapon, will find its way on every mix-tape I make from now on. For any fan of the aforementioned bands, Track a Tiger will be a new favorite. Their cool and collected approach is hard to turn down." - Fake Train

"We Move Like Ghosts sees Track a Tiger somewhere between classic emo and the more involved dynamics of today's underground pop scene. What's more, the band does it using a basis of acoustic and folk that's probably a much-needed reminder that everyone needs to get off their high horse and remember that at the end of the day, it's just pop music. We Moved Like Ghosts takes Track a Tiger through a soft-and-airy jaunt through pop's delicate side. Still, this album has more punch than the typical librarian-pop outfit. Don't Make a Weapon pits a strummy acoustic guitar against a background of buzzing electric for a tune that's stuck halfway between Teenage Fanclub and The Shins. Like any band worth your attention, Track a Tiger has a wide variety of tools at its command, and pulls a lot of them out on We Moved Like Ghosts. Dig into the songs and you'll find Track a Tiger's got enough to keep any armchair pop nut busy for more than a few cursory spins." - Aversion

"Track a Tiger play totally cool and groovy moody soft pop that sounds something like a cross between Starflyer 59, Pink Floyd and Yo La Tengo...but not really. Jim Vallet is one of the best new male vocalists we have heard this year. He has a soft, deep, breathy voice that is nothing short of fantastic. Add to this the fact that Track a Tiger's tunes are smooth, melodic, and catchy...and you have a magnetic band whose music is bound to catch on with the right audience (i.e., thinking listeners who require intelligent pop with substance). We Moved Like Ghosts is an unforgettable listening experience. This album is destined to be one of the best pop releases in 2007 without a doubt." - Babysue

"Chicago's Track A Tiger created an album in We Moved Like Ghosts that could have its hands all over you and you wouldn't feel a thing. You'd sense the closeness, but would look around for the culprit, as if attacked by invisible spiderwebs. It's a record that's touching and strong...It's the flavor of pop tune that doesn't typically get its day in court in the day and age of quickie consumption." - Quad City Times

"Track a Tiger are more from the Brian Jonestown Massacre school, steeping themselves in a variety of pop forms on We Moved Like Ghosts, but always returning to the 60s. Track a Tiger crafts their songs immaculately. These folks are master of flow. The shimmery production on Ghosts helps a lot. These songs rarely get bogged down musically, but when that possibility looms, there's just enough reverb to keep the song going. It's a technique rather than a cheap trick; these songs ride the edge, and you need to keep them in check now and again. The best music rides the edge of disaster. Track a Tiger keeps both wheels on the ground, if only barely. Fine thrills." - Aiding & Abetting

"Track a Tiger is an excellent blend of melodic hardships and desperate vocal patterns. Along with being uniquely calming they are also very versatile in the sense that We Moved Like Ghosts would do well in many groups. The underline theme is beautiful depression and they deliver it well. Acoustic riffs seem to mold in precise moments of ambience, all the while keeping a dominate beat. From beautiful drag to uplifting beat accompanied with soothing vocal....I'm staring to feel the love here, and I don't mind it so much. It's especially sexy when a random girl speaks in French over the music. Color me enlightened." - Diatribe

"We Moved Like Ghosts from Track a Tiger has an atmospheric sound and manages to keep that intimate, late night feel of the band's debut. Taking cues from Low and Iron & Wine, the songs softly fill the room, slowly draping themselves over you. This is the kid of album people recommend with a slightly scary look in their eye and very long, quickly-spoken sentences. Don't ignore those people this time." - Indigo Flow

"Deep Elm are only pressing 1,000 copies of new records to encourage digital downloads. What better way to start it than with the utterly brilliant Track a Tiger. Invoking the textured layering of atmospheric indie pop akin to American Analog Set, the music washes upwards like the incoming tide. Add to this the earnest dual vocals that sit between sombre and serene and you have a winner. Other comparisons can be made to Low or Iron and Wine which gives an idea about the melodic indie pop that they lovingly carve out from luscious soundscapes with keyboards, soft guitars and intricate percussion. I could go on about tracks which stand out but the truth is, I'd have to talk about every song on We Moved Like Ghosts as each has been carefully cared and provided for in a style that would impress Mother Theresa. What Deep Elm have here is a band who quite comfortably could challenge the supremacy of the Arts and Craft Collective label." - Die Shellsuit, Die!

"Track a Tiger's latest effort We Moved Like Ghosts sets this diverse five piece from the Windy city onto our radars with their original sound and creative minds. It has that feel-good vibe tucked into it at almost every curve. The vocals are a fusions of calming male voices balanced with a harmonious female voice. I applaud the original feel that pours effortlessly from Track a Tiger's sound. Sleepy music that has an upbeat feel to it and vocals that will hypnotize your ears. In the end, Track a Tiger is an enjoyable romp. They are incredibly original and offer up a refreshing dose of serenades and sonically pleasing adventures." - Skyline Press

"Marked by delicate and delightful female / male vocal harmonies, Track a Tiger's sophomore full-length We Moved Like Ghosts is a blend of indie pop that you simply must experience. Intricate instrumentation leads the listener down a pathway that's obviously pleasing to the ear but also to the psyche. Clever songwriting and even more ingenious arrangements pepper the disc. The alt-country twists that Track a Tiger employs are alluring and completely intriguing, to say the least. A light atmospheric pop album that is invigorating among its many mysterious allusions, We Moved Like Ghosts washes over you with the laps of ocean water warmed by tender spirits. This is amazing." - Smother

"The music on We Moved Like Ghosts feels delightfully fresh. The Chicago-based band intricately weaves each of the ten songs on Ghosts, providing a sound that really does seem ghostly. While there are pleasant hooks scattered about, a majority of the album steadily creeps along with wistful guitar leads, easy-breezy rhythms and occasional flares of out-of-the-ordinary instruments. Jim Vallet and Kristina Castaneda add to the eclectic vibe as they utilize soft voices throughout Ghosts. Track a Tiger's music works wonders when one is in a contemplative, dreamy mood. A great pick-up for Deep Elm." - Pastepunk

"The pop elements of We Moved Like Ghosts really had me. Light, All These Accidents, Not Far From This Anger and Summer's End were highly comparable to The American Analog Set - a band I really like - and Yo La Tengo. Some songs have more of a Low or Belle and Sebastian sound to them while others bring to mind neo-folk and alt-country stalwart Iron and Wine. There's lots of acoustic and slide guitar, soft drumming, lush keyboards and a wonderful trading of male and female vocals. This is the record for those that know dynamically spirited and sonically vibrant don't always mean loud guitars. If you are into atmospheric indie-rock or well-textured slowcore, say 'hello' to a new favorite. - Feast of Hate and Fear
