Jun 30, 2022The addition of older tracks onto Home can constrain Spektor’s artistic growth more generally, like on “SugarMan” – which stretches food metaphors to their absolute limit and lacks the staying power of Spektor’s best tracks. However, at their best, the songs of Home feel akin to a warm hug on a cold day.

Jul 17, 2022I honestly don't get the hype for this album. This album reeks. I've listened to it about 3 times and I still don't like it one bit.
