A beautiful, well paced album full of amazing lyrics and one of the most beautiful males voices out there. Criminally underrated; you immediately feel like you are laying in the grass, sun shining and a light breeze is going over you. Warm, comforting and a desire for more.
This will forever be a favorite album of mine. It takes me back to such a specific time and place in my life that no other album ever will. No skips, each song is an absolute banger (even the slower, more emotionally heavy songs). The intro of Welcome To New York is an underrated album opener and that slow fade in will ALWAYS make me happy.
This is, by far, not her best album but its FUN. The production and throwback vibes kill with her nonchalant vocals and she still finds moments to show off her true, raw talent. This is an album that gets better with every listen.
This was my first time listening to the album top to bottom and a friend made me read the lyrics as we listened. She did explain the backstory of each song which gives you the full vision of what Cain was going for. Horribly sad, gut wrenching, tragic yet beautiful. Somehow finding the beauty in the horrifying world we live in and the things we experience. This album will take you on a ride if you give it the time to do it.
Not groundbreaking for Rogers but its a great listen regardless. Don't break the mold but still excels in that mold.
The album is a bop. Admittedly, I always expect just classic pop from Dua Lipa but she delivers every single time. There are ups and downs; songs that have emotional lyrics paired with catchy upbeat score; wonderful. Future Nostalgia is better but this is her lovable little sister.
When I say I want a chill vibes playlist, this is the exact thing I am talking about. Doesn't disappoint. Not groundbreaking but not unoriginal. Soothing, warm, comforting.
Love Hate Music Box is the perfect title as there are tracks that I do genuinely love but there are a lot of tracks that I will never listen to again. Seems too long and a little one note and you get listener exhaustion by the end which doesn't give fair credit to the back half of the album.
As per usual, the first listen isn't great but the more you listen the better it gets. There are some songs that could be potential skips but I like to keep the full feeling of the album. It is definitely too long but I would not have wanted it split up since they are so close together. I understand the criticism of the Jack produced tracks, but I personally love Jack and find them to be bops. Still listening to the full thing, top to bottom and don't plan on stopping.
Fun, refreshing album. So fun, wild takes and interpolations. This is a vibe.
This is exactly what you would expect from Novo Amor; like being wrapped in a warm blanket. Its familiar but new. The vocals are top notch as always, the interludes give such a perfect balance and the lyrics take you away. I was left wanting a bit, maybe for something somewhat upbeat but it will definite get a re-listen either way.
The lyrics are the standout of this album. It did seem somewhat one note through the listen and reminiscent of older stuff; I was left waiting to be wowed and it didn't happen.
The flow of this album is flawless. It’s fun, fresh and amazing take on country music. The covers are stunning and the collabs are perfection. I want a visual album stat.
This immediately takes me to freshman year of college, late night drives, cigarette smoke and new friends. This record helped open me up to tons of new music and will always be a formative part of me. This being a debut album and being this thought out and fantastic is impressive. Deserves every relisten.
Even if some of these songs feel cookie cutter, this is a no skip album. Consistent bops, emotional opener, and songs that make you want to dance. This is one of my favorite albums of all time and it will always come back to be played.
This album is bop after bop. The lyrics are incredible and fun. Heartbreaking one moment and giggling the next. This album is the antidote to emotion, let it all out.
Pure dance tracks with lyrics that will make you cry. This album is fun and a true representation of Tove Lo as an artist.
No skip, bop after bop, pure joy. This album will always make me smile and be a constant favorite. Amazing addition to the first.
