This was a good album.

I Know There's Gonna Be (Good Times) honestly is my least favorite track.

Great album. Gosh and Loud Places are my favorites. This had me so hyped for The xx's I See You, which ended up being good but a slight disappointment compared to Jamie's solo outing.

Great album, and much better than any of the xx albums. So diverse and colourful, even if I Know There's Gonna Be (Good Times) is an obvious stinker, it also adds to the diversity of the tracks.

Hopefully it won't be his only solo album.

Track picks:
1. Gosh
4. Obvs
11. Girl

Colourful indeed. I agree it's better than any of the xx albums, but I don't agree at all on Good Times being remotely bad, if anything it's top 3. Gosh may be my favorite song of the decade.

I really want to find more albums similar to this one (although Burial just bores me). Too bad it's one of those albums "real electronic music" fans don't like and the indie crowd do, like Cross by Justice.

Definitely! It was a strong entry for song of the summer 2015.
