    With this grower, Freelance Whales have avoided the sophomore slump and grown into one of indie rock's most intriguing new acts.

    The music is consistently impressive. A calmer, mellower than its predecessor, affair, Diluvia is an enchanting album worth several listens.

    While they still, ahem, swim in highly populated waters alongside Local Natives and king fish Sufjan, here Freelance Whales have made a strong argument for their crucial place in the current pantheon.

    Diluvia is an album that requires time and attention, but is ultimately worth every listen.
