Norman Fucking Rockwell!

The first half of this album is some of the best music I've ever heard. The second half is merely great. That slight drop-off is the only thing keeping this from a perfect score. Still an essential listen.

Terrific front to back. There's a reason people keep coming back to this.

This album exists in its own universe. Nothing compares.

Dense and complex but never pretentious. Excellent stuff.

Came to this late and wish I'd found it sooner. The way it balances experimentation with accessibility is remarkable — it never dumbs things down but it never alienates you either. Every listen reveals something I missed before. Absolutely essential.

The ideas are there but the execution falls flat too often.

This hits a sweet spot between accessibility and experimentation that very few albums manage. It's catchy enough to enjoy casually but deep enough to reward close listening. Smart, well-crafted music.

Some great moments here but it doesn't quite sustain over the full runtime.

There are flashes of brilliance but also some tracks that feel underdeveloped.

This is fine but I expected more given the critical consensus.
