    You already know where this thing is going to take you. The style is there, yet you can hear new directions and a little bit of experimentation. There are some tone changes as well, especially in the latter songs. Overall, this album therefore feels more complex than the last two. The success of You're A Woman, I'm A Machine was not replicated, but i feel like the fans can truly appreciateYou already know where this thing is going to take you.

    Is 4 Lovers is the band’s most playful album to date too, oscillating between The Beatles, Lenny Kravitz, Big Black, early (aka: good) Muse and The Rapture.

    If you take this for what it is, then you’ll have a great time, but the second you start to think about the longevity or replay value of this album, it all starts to come apart at the seams. This is a great album for the fans, but that’s essentially all it is.
