Lost in the Dream

A good album in a discography full of great ones.

A decent listen but it doesn't hold up to repeated plays the way their best work does.

There's not a wasted second on this record. Even the interludes and transitions feel purposeful. I've seen people debate which track is the best and the fact that there's no consensus tells you everything about how consistently excellent it is.

Started strong but lost me in the back half. The opening three tracks had me excited and then it just sort of coasts on autopilot. Would have been a much stronger EP than it is an album.

Love the sonic palette on this record. Every sound feels intentional and the mix is pristine. A couple of the songs blur together on casual listens but focused listening reveals the nuances. Very strong work overall.

I was skeptical of the hype but this completely lives up to it.

I wanted to like this more than I did. Some good ideas buried under uneven execution.

Flawless execution of an ambitious vision. This is why we love music.
