The atmosphere this album creates is incredible.
A once-in-a-generation artistic achievement.
A decent listen but it doesn't hold up to repeated plays the way their best work does.
Competent and often enjoyable, but feels like it's missing something to make it truly special.
Not sure what happened here. Their previous work was so strong and this feels like a significant step backward. The songwriting is lazy, the production is overwrought, and the whole thing feels phoned in. A couple of decent tracks don't save it.
The kind of album that makes you want to pick up an instrument.
The emotional weight of this album is remarkable. Very moving stuff.
The kind of album where you sit in silence after it ends.
A rich, layered album that reveals more with each listen.
I keep trying to find something wrong with this album and I genuinely can't. The melodies are gorgeous, the arrangements are inventive, the lyrics are thoughtful without being pretentious. It just fires on every cylinder from start to finish.
