Still Local

Sainté's third full-length project sustains its quality throughout, but not its energy, leaving it consequentially underwhelming. Poor features, lack of sonic diversity and monotonous flow undermine Sainté's true ability, making a forgettable result out of what could have been a career-making and career-defining moment. The songs are good, sure, but few are good enough to leave an impression or an urge to revisit them. Highlights admittedly come late on in the form of 'Safe' and 'Milwaukee', it's just a shame that the rest of the project isn't up to scratch
