so silky smooth

These reviews will be full of artificially low scores by people who want to hate it and people who make accounts just to give this 100...

EDIT: Actually better than I anticipated, and although there are some highs, there are plenty of lows and the record has very little flow from song to song

I had to listen to this one a few extra times before reviewing to make sure I wasn't just liking this one because other people were and I actually liked it. But holy shit! I didn't love previous works by Weyes Blood but this one is a true masterpiece. So few albums can create such a nostalgic sound while still sounding current and innovative. This album successfully does so on just about every song, both musically and lyrically. The arrangements are powerful, her voice captivating. A nearly ... read more

Ugh disappointing :(

Not too many people making indie rock that sounds refreshing and new in 2019, but this is pretty darn good

Beautiful and sparse. Production kinda reminds me of the Moses Sumney record a few years back. Great introduction to an artist I've been meaning to check out

Another solid record from Jenny

Decently fun

Good good good

Their best effort since total life forever

This album is crawling with personality, and very strong after her promising EP

Damn this one grew on me. So good. So much emotion

Solange > Beyonce

Masterpiece

Much improved from her debut. Early AOTY candidate

Edit: Downgrading a bit. I think some of my initial hype has worn off and a lot of these songs are less interesting to me than they first appeared to be

Honestly, given the comments here and the atrocity that is 7 rings, I thought this album would be a lot worse. But it's pretty catchy, and showcases her voice far more than she did on Sweetener, while still maintaining modern production (although too much attempting to do trap)

I formerly had this as a 100, but dipped down because I'm not sure Hudson is really good. However, what a masterpiece this is, and what joy I've gotten revisiting this in advance of their upcoming album. No album (Puberty 2 comes close) to capturing the spirit and emotions of millennials better than this record. Songs about unrealistic job prospects, atheism, and generational arguments. This album captures the mood of post-recession 20-somethings better than any work of art to date.

Best breakup album of the decade
