"This is a great IDM album. No live drumming or guitar this time around, instead we have a more classic electronic aesthetic with occasional classical strings. The opening 3 tracks and bias are some of his best work. It's tough but right now I'd say this is better than Elaenia. The only track fail..."  [+]  Reply

"Stella Donnelly was revealed to the public with her first EP "Thrush Metal". Since then, the musician from Perth has managed to find a place on the Australian indie rock scene. On this new album, she is fighting patriarchy through acidic writing as in "Old Man" but also "Season's Greetings" and t..."  [+]  Reply

"This is a nice album. I'm surprised it's so low on the year chart, especially compared to arriana grande and billie eilish. Imo this is much better than either of those albums. Only time will tell if I'm still listening to this in months and years"  Reply

"Captures the same vibe and feel as Aeroplane. Oh Sister could be an extension of Oh Comely. Jeff Mangum is a ridiculously talented songwriter and these two albums - Aeroplane and Ferris Wheel - deserve to be ranked with any of the great Springsteen, Nas, or Tom Waits, in that regard."  Reply

"There was some mild controversy going into this release, I guess, but ultimately the only thing striking while listening to it was the general indifference of nearly everything here. There was some buzz about bringing Rostam into the mix, but all that seemed to aid the production was with hammeri..."  [+]  Reply

"Not their best, but still has some highlights. Dexter & Sinister is awesome. Weightless is a beautiful song too. A bit too much filler in the middle of the album though, which is why I rate it below most of their albums."  Reply
