“I wanted to like this more than I did. Some good ideas buried under uneven execution.”
“Took a few listens to click but now I can't stop playing it.”
“The singles are obvious highlights but the deep cuts are excellent too.”
“Ambitious album that mostly delivers. There are one or two moments where they overreach, but the confidence and vision on display are admirable. The standout tracks here are absolutely world-class.”
“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.”
“The atmosphere this album creates is incredible.”
“A few incredible songs surrounded by more forgettable material.”
“Really strong album with only a couple of tracks that don't quite land.”
“The production is interesting but the songs themselves are lacking.”
“Some interesting ideas that don't always come together.”
“Feels self-indulgent in places. Could have been much better with editing.”
“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.”
“I can see why people love this but it didn't grab me the way I expected.”
“Bold artistic choices that mostly work. Rewarding for patient listeners.”
“Some truly transcendent moments here. A few tracks feel like filler but overall stellar.”
“I can see why this has its fans but it just doesn't connect with me the way their other work does. The songwriting feels less inspired and the production, while technically impressive, feels a bit sterile. A few standout moments keep it from being a total miss.”
“I slept on this for way too long. A friend kept recommending it and I kept putting it off, and now I feel like I wasted years not having this in my life. The songwriting is remarkably assured — these aren't the kind of hooks that grab you immediately and then fade. They're the slow-burn kind that embed themselves in your brain and only get stronger over time. The production deserves a lot of credit too. It's detailed without being cluttered, polished without being sterile. There's a warmth to the sound that makes it feel alive and breathing. A few tracks could have been trimmed but honestly that's a minor complaint about an excellent record.”
“Inventive and consistently engaging. One of the better albums I've heard this year.”
“Incredibly well-crafted. A few moments don't work but the highs are very high.”
“A mature, confident album that knows exactly what it wants to be. No wasted tracks, no unnecessary detours. It doesn't reinvent the wheel but it polishes it to a brilliant shine. Thoroughly enjoyable.”
