Oui is the fifth album by The Sea and Cake, released on Thrill Jockey. [7] [8]
Trouser Press called the album "lackluster," writing that it "adheres closely to the formula but fails to generate any sort of spark from it." [9] The Chicago Tribune called it the band's "most delicately engrossing work, its charms illustrated in tiny moments of bliss such as the ghostly, Jobim-like fade of 'The Colony Room' or the lush yet fragile orchestrations of 'Seemingly'." [10] SF Weekly deemed it "an unfortunate downtempo detour." [11]
