“There are about six really good songs here buried in an album that's twelve tracks too long. The edit would be excellent but as presented, it's a patience-testing listen that rewards skipping around.”
“A solid album with some standout tracks, but a bit uneven overall.”
“Overrated in my opinion. There's some good stuff here but not enough.”
“I respect the ambition but this doesn't work for me.”
“A disappointing effort from an otherwise talented artist.”
“I appreciate the artistic risk-taking even if the result is a bit of a mess. There are kernels of good ideas scattered throughout but nothing is developed enough to really land. Frustrating because you can hear the potential.”
“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.”
“Fine album from a good band. Nothing offensive, nothing transcendent. It sits comfortably in the middle of their discography and that's okay. Not everything needs to be a masterpiece to be worth your time.”
“The kind of album where you sit in silence after it ends.”
“The emotional depth here is staggering. I was completely floored the first time.”
“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.”
“This grew on me a lot. First listen I thought it was good, not great. By the fifth listen I was completely hooked. The subtlety of the arrangements really rewards patience and close attention.”
“Actively unpleasant listening experience for me. I can appreciate craft without enjoying the result, and that's exactly what happened here. Well-made music that I never want to hear again. Different strokes, I suppose.”
“I tried multiple times but can't connect with this at all.”
“I don't think music gets better than this.”
“Enjoyable but not groundbreaking. Good for what it is.”

“Some interesting ideas here that don't always pan out. You can tell they were trying to push in a new direction and I respect that, even if the results are mixed. A couple of tracks are genuinely great.”
