True That (stylized in all lowercase) is the debut album by Canadian actor and musician Michael Cera.
The album has garnered positive reviews from music critics, with many comparing it to the work of Elliott Smith and other indie folk artists.
[5] Vulture.com's Jesse David Fox cited the album's "pleasant instrumentals"; he compared the overall effect to the works of Cass McCombs, Jason Schwartzman's band Coconut Records, and Elliott Smith, as well as Paul and Linda McCartney's first album, Ram.
[2] 7BitArcade's Aaron Kent praised Cera's "wistful vocals", describing them "a broken Elliott Smith trying to channel Beck".
[6] Chris DeVille of Stereogum called true that "a charming listen", adding that "[i]ts lo-fi folk songs and jazzy piano ditties remind me—in spirit, at least—of Badly Drawn Boy’s threadbare debut The Hour of Bewilderbeast".
