“There's a reason this is universally acclaimed. It really is that good.”

“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.”

“Solid if unspectacular album that does exactly what you'd expect from this artist. The songwriting is competent, the production is clean, and there are enough standout moments to keep you engaged. But it never really surprises you or takes any genuine risks. I've listened to it maybe half a dozen times and I enjoy it each time, but I never find myself reaching for it over their better work. It's the kind of album that's perfectly pleasant background music but doesn't demand your full attention the way their best records do.”
