==Reception==
Because Thyme Travel was such a limited release, very few professional reviews were written about it. [[Punknews.org]] gave the EP three and a half stars out of five, saying "while the dynamic, powerful soundscape provided by producer [[Mike Sapone]] was one of the strongest points on Browder's full-length, [[New Best Friends]], released earlier this year, Thyme Travel definitely contrasts, but not in a bad way. It seems simultaneously more organic and unintentionally reverb-y." <ref>http://www.punknews.org/review/8647/mansions-thyme-travel-cassette</ref>

Punknews.org gave the EP three and a half stars out of five, saying "while the dynamic, powerful soundscape provided by producer Mike Sapone was one of the strongest points on Browder's full-length, New Best Friends, released earlier this year, Thyme Travel definitely contrasts, but not in a bad way. It seems simultaneously more organic and unintentionally reverb-y."[4]
