"My favourite Florence + The Machine album. There's no bad song or filler in this album, and Florence's voice is tremendous. One of the best of 2015, it's beautiful!"  Reply

This album took me through a range of emotions, it showed me the entire life experience of a human being. People talk about albums being life-affirming, this is it. Susanne Sundfør just kills it. Perhaps the most accurate genre to classify it as is synthpop, though it's so much more than that. The thing that sticks out the most are the vocals. Vocally, this album is arranged so incredibly well it's mind blowing. Sundfør's voice is fantastic and everything she does with her voice, all the harmonies, the layers, all of it, is just awesome. This album is perfect, I mean I genuinely cannot find a flaw in it. The songwriting, the arrangements, all of it, it's perfect. This album is so many things, it unrequited love, it's heartbreaking abandonment, it's loneliness, it's redemption, it's everything. If "Memorial" (a song that, instrumentally, sounds like the soundtrack to a sunset) doesn't make you feel a wealth of emotions just in and of itself, then you need to re-examine yourself. This album is magical, there's no other way to describe the experience I had with it, this is one of those rare albums that inserts itself into your life, that burns itself into your very being that it feels like it knows you personally, like it's something you've been waiting for for so long. I don't even know if any of this makes sense, but all I can say is, listen to this album because you will not, for even a second, regret it."  [+]  Reply

"I really love the vibe on this album. It's not grandiose, but sincere and moody.

People might call it too short, but when listening it doesnt really feel to short (though I do love it so much that I woudn't say no to more). It feels much more concise than short; he whittles away all the excesses of hip-hop, making songs of just a dark repetitive sample and no hook, yet its engrossing in a way thats hard to describe. All the songs are glued together by small interlude bits, that just get catchier and more intriguing the more you listen. Everything about this album just keeps improving every time I listen to it. This small, unassuming, dark, and almost anti-commercial album is a masterpiece of hip-hop. In my eyes its a close one between this and Steven Wilson's "Hand Cannot Erase" for AOTY for 2015. 90/100"  [+]  Reply

"I really like it honestly. I don't mind change if it's good and this is definitely very good for being more of a chill outing. Her voice is wonderful for both slow and upbeat so I don't understand why some people are so against the change."  Reply

The vocals and instrumentals vary; at times they're soft and sweet (Turn to Dust, Bros, Swallowtail), at others they're harsh and intense (You're a Germ, Giant Peach). At all times, Wolf Alice keep the music catchy and punchy. Some songs could be more fleshed out, but as a whole they're still very good. It's a great album, but I'd say its just short of brilliant. Wolf Alice have found their unique sound, and they're very close to achieving something truly amazing. In the meantime, this album will suffice as a very solid work."  [+]  Reply
