"The [album] title came from a recipe card in my grandma's recipe box," says Brian Moen of Peter Wolf Crier. His bandmate Peter Pisano explains further: "It's an attitude."

Peter Wolf Crier also describe Plum Slump, the duo's most collaborative record in their discography, as "post-critical." "If you really want to make something authentic, don't really try to hard," says Pisano.

In her review of Plum Slump, blogger Andrea Swensson says, "Listening to Peter Wolf Crier is like watching sunlight stream through a smudged prism; you think you know where these beautiful melodies are going to end up, but before you know it there are rainbows on the floor and shadows covering your face."
