The Golden Dove is the second solo album by Mary Timony.[5][6] It was released on May 21, 2002, on Matador Records.[7]

Critical reception[edit]

AllMusic thought that "The Golden Dove puts the 'independent' back in indie-rock: It's beautiful, weird, and difficult to love."[2] The Washington Post wrote that "the songs jump from poetic fantasies accompanied by British-folk arpeggios to earthy resentments over choppy punk chords."[1] The Chicago Tribune praised the "beguiling instrumental color and gentle lyricism."[8]
