Dork
The perfect mix of sugary pop, vibrant colours and enough crunch and substance to make sure it lasts ten times longer than your average lolly.

The Line of Best Fit
Templeman’s songwriting is unmatched amongst his fellow 18-year-old musicians, displaying both a successful present and a bright future.

NME
On this mini-album, Templeman’s far-flung influences are brought together more fluently than before. And more importantly, he appears in the throws of continual creative reinventions.

DIY
It turns up the production slickness while sacrificing none of his affable, boyish charm.

Overall, a very mature collection of sing-alongs. Templeman has proven that he is evolving as an artist. This is going to be a big year for this young crooner.

Forever Isn’t Long Enough is a showcase of the deeper side to Templeman and a distinct show of how he is maturing in his music.

There aren't many dips in quality across its runtime either and it doesn't overstay its welcome like most indie-pop albums tend to nowadays.

Forever Isn't Long Enough es su primer intento por incurrir en un gran formato, como es el LP, aunque de tan corto termina por quedarse a caballo ... read more

How is this boy 17?!!? Life. Is. Not. Fair. What a talent. Infectious, confident, fun, catchy, great sounding songs. Ruthless in his moving on from a broken relationship (Shady and actually most songs), I like him even more. He should be playing every festival in the world and supporting The Snuts of their tour – a match made in heaven. The album has grown on me over the week, gone from being pleasant to actively trying to listen to it. I love every song on this album, bar One more day, ... read more
