Devout

UK grime fixture Mr Mitch’s latest LP explores a pared-back sound. It feels polished and tactile, with themes of loyalty, accountability, and fatherhood.

Devout will undoubtedly resonate with former ravers who have now grown up, started families, and face problems dealing with relationships and parenthood. For other listeners, however, the sentiments might fall flat, and the album might be too sparse, sluggish, and sad to really latch onto.
