"This album just doesn't do it for me. Most of it comes across as just weak disco (Lose Yourself To Dance) overblown and trying too hard (Touch) or just outright dull (Within, The Game Of Love) Get Lucky is an exception, pulling off retro disco to great effect and making one of the best pop single..."

"OK so why do I feel this is a "music equivalent of Tree of Life".

"Lovely album and dreamy sound. Melody's Echo Chamber sounds to me like a sweeter version of Lonerism. The first half is strong and has my favourites like "Some Time Alone, Alone & I'll Follow You". The second half is decent & keeps the album's pace and sound going." Reply

"With echoes of yéyé and shibuya-kei and lyrics in three languages, the second album from French psychedelist Melody Prochet makes for dizzying listening. It would all seem so joyful and carefree were it not for the occasional to-the-bone lyric such as “so much blood on my hands/and not much left ..." [+] Reply
