“Terrific front to back. There's a reason people keep coming back to this.”
“Probably the most perfectly sequenced album I've ever heard. Each track sets up the next one beautifully and the climax hits like a freight train. The fact that they pulled this off is honestly kind of miraculous.”
“This album is a complete artistic statement. No filler, no compromises.”
“Took a few listens to click but now I can't stop playing it.”
“Inventive and consistently engaging. One of the better albums I've heard this year.”
“The talent is obvious but the execution is inconsistent.”
“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.”
“Just when you think you've heard it all, an album like this comes along.”
“I tried multiple times but can't connect with this at all.”
“Peak creative output from an artist at the top of their game.”
“I wanted to like this more than I did. Some good ideas buried under uneven execution.”
“The ideas are there but the execution falls flat too often.”
“A solid album with some standout tracks, but a bit uneven overall.”
“Has its moments but feels bloated. Would benefit from trimming a few tracks.”
“The production is excellent but the songwriting doesn't always match up.”
“Feels self-indulgent in places. Could have been much better with editing.”
“I remember the first time I heard this album — I was driving home late at night and it completely stopped me in my tracks. I had to pull over and just sit with it. The way every song flows into the next, the way the production choices serve the emotion rather than showing off, the way the lyrics hit differently depending on what you're going through. It's one of those rare albums that feels like it was made specifically for you. I've probably listened to this over a hundred times now and I'm still finding new details. A little background vocal I never noticed, a bass line that does something unexpected on the third verse, a lyric that suddenly clicks in a new way. That's the mark of a true masterpiece — it grows with you.”
“This has some of the best individual songs of the decade even if the album has weak spots.”
“Not for me at all. I can see the craft but it does absolutely nothing for me.”
“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.”
