Aug 17, 2020A triumphant return for longtime fans and a winning introduction for newcomers, Crave shows Kiesza has only gotten better at reinventing the idealism and big emotions of a bygone era for another generation.
-
Aug 17, 2020On her second album, Kiesza has defied the odds and made a solid comeback to the pop world. ‘Crave’ is a very promising – and very fun – hint at even bigger and better things to come.
-
Aug 17, 2020The maudlin “Love Never Dies,” the album’s lone ballad, dials things down too far, channeling musical theater over a lilting piano melody and funereal drums. It feels like a strange outlier, especially in comparison with her more evocative, emotionally spare one-off ballad “Sweet Love” from last summer. Still, Kiesza’s gut-punch delivery and melodies buoy Crave into a brief, bright pleasure.

Aug 17, 2020Treat Crave like an EP, and think of the playful, toxic, masculinity-skewering When Boys Cry as the closing number. That way, the party always ends on a high.

Aug 27, 2020Underrated Canadian bop queen! Though a couple tracks fall flat, it's an invigorating, propulsive record.
