Really enjoyable from beginning to end, a strong album from La Havas

Pretty enjoyable if you approach each track individually. There seems to be absolutely no structure to the album as a whole though, which really detracts from the overall experience. It really feels like minimal time was spent planning the album, and it was all chucked together just as they went along - adding whatever songs they felt like on the day. If it was structured better this could hit the mid/high 70s for me, but instead it scores lower.

A solid album by the Irish talent, there are some real gems to be found here - the run from 1-7 is really solid, although it does fall off a little after that. The features really help bring this album together, with Matthew Harris and Lucy McWilliams being my personal standouts. Malaki certainly has a unique sound, but it grows quickly on you and you find yourself craving for more.

Favourite tracks - 46A, Cuppa Tea, Fair Play
Worst track - Baby Bubblegum

Not bad at times, but an absolute drag too. Some solid enough tracks, but a lot of filler and it just feels endless, not too enjoyable and probably won't be returning to it as a full album - instead only saving a few tracks.

I found it a little bland, but still enjoyable. 'Me, Mary, and My Guitar' is the standout track here

Solid, fun, and funky. What's not to like?

As my first entry point to Little Dragons music outside of a few collaborations, I found this to be reasonably solid. Whilst not the best thing in the world, it's an enjoyable listen with some nice beats and I really enjoyed the vocal performance. Not too memorable, but I wouldn't be opposed to coming back for another listen in the future

Solid enough, but suffers from some repetivitve sounds

Not sure if I love their sound or hate it. This album is bold and packed full of energy, with a modern twist on some classic sounds. Some people will love this, others will hate it, but I feel like most people will find it 'decent'. It's nothing special (certainly not deserving of a 100 score) but is still a fairly enjoyable listen

Fave tracks - Cut your hair, My Dear, If you had a perfect life

Title track carries hard

Like the title suggests, I had no idea what I was getting into with this album, but whilst it caught me completely off guard, I loved almost every single track here. There is such an array of sounds here, from heavy dance to indie pop/rock but they all sound like the fit here. One track in particular - Being Bad Feels Pretty Good - really messed with my mind as when it came on I was certain I'd accidentally moved on to a different album (it gave me real HUNNY vibes).

The perfect continuation from their previous collaboration - cool as can be

Cool cool cool

I love their sound - personally I found their first release to be a little more unique and enjoyable, but this release shows continued promise and leaves me looking forward to a full album release

Eccentric, energetic, and enjoyable

Hypnotic and entrancing in the best of ways

Caught me completely by surprise when this released - very entertaining!

The first CD in this set is incredible, probably scoring above 90 for me personally - tracks like Ceremony and Blue Monday being especially stellar. Unfortunately then the 2nd CD is less enjoyable, made up of tracks that simply don't hit the levels of the first CD. If this stopped at True Faith (or even Procession) then this would be an easy 90+ for me, but unfortunately the 2nd CD means I have to drop it down into the 80s. Still worth a listen regardless, I just wish it was shorter.

Not a fan, it doesn't engage me at all and leaves me underwhelmed by its end. It's the better of the two Swans albums I've listened to for sure, but I won't be coming back to Swans anytime soon after spending so much time just getting through those 2 releases.

Disorder is absolutely impeccable, the rest of the album is almost as strong too. Some tracks are a little weaker, but overall this is still an incredible album
