    Each track contains a melodic or harmonic flourish, a synth layer, a moment of unexpected aggression or vulnerability which shows that, at the same time as delivering a potentially career-defining album, there is the exciting potential of so much further that Lily and Madeleine could go.

    Their ideal is to make a good album every year, and this, their third offering, meets that goal. This is teen pop with crystalline harmonies and heart-tugging lyrics, but they have a maturity that belies their years. [No. 129, p.57]

    The added muscle suits them and you wish there were more of it. [Mar 2016, p.76]

    In under 40-minutes, Lily & Madeleine prove there's still beauty in the world, and that sisterly love, coupled naturally with evolving talent, can make for an impressively powerful album.

    On Keep It Together, what they lose in intimacy with the amplified environment, they gain in musical maturity, which only seems fitting.

    While there’s no doubting the siblings’ talent, at times the polish of the production does reduce the impact of the songs slightly.

    When it’s good, it’s very, very good, but for most of the time it’s really quite bland.

    Dry and lacklustre instrumentation does nothing to compensate for an unshakable one-dimensionality.
