Apr 30, 2020Turnover kind of flopped on this one. Their last record felt much more cohesive and focused in tone and theme. Here, they're using the same guitars but throwing in the odd bongos or saxophones and it just doesn't mesh for me. It feels like a baby step forward that resulted in a trip/fall instead of an actual progression for the band's sound. Pretty disappointed.

Nov 4, 2019Even when Turnover try spicing things up with congas, a violin, and a couple of ill-fitting saxophone features, Altogether tastes incredibly vanilla, like a playlist of department store slow jams.

Nov 1, 2019While Altogether is a pleasantly enough constructed record, it suffers a similar problem to Nothing's Dancing On the Blacktop from last year – it's just not particularly enthralling for older fans.

Nov 1, 2019Altogether is perhaps the lightest and most pop-oriented release in the band's canon, doubling down on bright guitar tones and jazzy chord voicings, and relying even more heavily on lush synth parts to augment their sound. While its feather-soft tone flirts with the smooth banality of easy listening, parts of the album are far more clever and well-structured than first impressions might suggest.
