James Blake - Trying Times
80

Blake's most cohesive and concise record to date. Despite spanning across multiple genres, from soft ballads to huge dance tracks, it manages to deliver a very consistent and positive message that is much needed to the world at this time. Although the experimental production found in earlier records was generally toned down for this album, this reflects his development as both an artist and a person, having achieved a newfound clarity in the "Trying Times". As a result, the album ... read more

Absolutely loved the album. Maximalism at its finest imo
So dense and layered with everchanging textures it's such a good listen and some of these garage rhythms are so good

Wow. Just wow. I couldn't get into it at first, but once I had... i cant explain it in words.
It feels bare, it feels empty yet full, and there is an eeriness to it all that feels so human. Its songs lack a traditional structure and instead develop organically and abruptly, leaving the listener to linger in the texture and space James creates. His use of textures and layering to build up sounds is part of what's so captivating. It's almost as if the song's got a life of its ... read more
