CRITIC REVIEWS

Ferreira manages to balance her teen pop past with her current interest in indie rock in surprising, creative, and always catchy ways.

Night Time, My Time succeeds in portraying her as a complex person who’s successfully discovered her own voice.

It’s both a relief and a bit of a shock that Night Time, My Time is not only here, but that it’s one of the most pleasing pieces of pop-rock to come along this year.

Likening her experience to fighting "the hounds of hell" may seem rich, but on the record, at least, she's arrived.

With Night Time, My Time, Ferreira shows that when the pressure gets to boiling point, finally letting off steam can feel damn good.

More remarkable than ‘Night Time…’’s hard-won release is how brilliantly universal it is without sacrificing any of its weirdness.

If Sky Ferreira’s appeal is down to her capricious personality as much as pure musical talent, that’s a balancing act that often makes for a memorable pop star.
70
The 21-year-old Ferreira makes arresting hybrids, her contrasting stances are rarely just contrary for the sake of it. She turns her back on us with conviction.
70
For the most part, Ferreira's debut keeps things simple, focusing hard on immediate connections.
70
Like her famous former mentor and family friend, Michael Jackson, the only life Sky Ferreira has known has been that of a pop star. Only now, thanks to Night Time, My Time, it appears that her string of shit luck has come to an end.

Like the album’s heinous cover – Ferreira sullen and wide-eyed, showering naked, baring her breasts like a waxwork Helen of Troy – this is cheap theatrics masquerading as inspired art.
50
Some of the modern EDM heaviness of Icona Pop and Sleigh Bells kicks in latently, but the 21-year-old's iciness ultimately fails to charm.
40
Californian singer and model Sky Ferreira's full-length debut leaves a lot to be desired outside of the album's handful of enjoyable pop songs.
40
Producer and co-writer Ariel Rechtshaid may have used Bowie’s Low as a reference point but the scatterings of choppy guitar scuzz add little to an already uneven and unimpressive debut.

As a whole, the album feels shallow. Maybe you'd enjoy it if you're partial to a good old-fashioned Avril Lavigne chord'n'yelp, or you actually enjoyed the music played in H&M.
Full of grungy, distorted noisy beats encapsulated with dark artistic synth-pop elements perfectly mixing glam rock aura on the debut body of work titled “Night Time, My Time” by the indie talented artist named Sky Ferreira. The edgy ultra hooks of the album will make you jive endlessly, the style is very unique to a typical pop song as she seems to find her magnificent sound and for blending two or more genres of her own choice with different vibes are so rare to be ... read more
With her debut album (and so far her only one) Sky really found her sound, the mix between Pop Rock, Synthpop and others really benefited her, her voice sounds very dynamic and alive on every song. Despite having a lot of genres, the album manages to sound very cohesive and it doesn’t have that feeling that they just threw songs together just for fun, almost every song has a purpose on the album.
Highlights: Omanko, I Blame Myself, 24 Hours & Nobody Asked Me (If I Was Okay).
