    This is possibly the most polarizing album i've ever listened to. Absolutely great at some parts, but totally fails in others. I also can't help but feel this is a bit of a Shaking the Habitual ripoff.

    Though I firmly admire Planningtorock's message throughout the album, and I got stuck and subsumed in her curious music, I cannot avoid noticing that she lacks development and depth in her lyrics and melodies. It's a valuable effort, but it has several flaws.

    Padding the album with ambient interstitials would be a forgivable peccadillo were the other songs seriously weighty--after all, even Kid A had 'Treefingers'--but the remaining seven tracks can themselves come off as a little half-baked.

    Gendered pronouns do not appear on the album, thus the record feels distant, as if Rostron is isolated from the listener, a tactic that makes the album intriguingly impersonal yet universal.

    Because All Love’s Legal is so straightforward, so obvious, it can never capture your imagination with the charismatic subjectivity that is the province of the best musicians and artists.
