    I'm really shocked! It feels like a modern instant classic, actually every single track is outstanding. Album overall is very consistent both musically and lyrically, much better than her debut which was already great.

    She's a queen, this album is pure fire...#FULLONLADYWOOD

    The lyrics, the meaning of each songs, the production...minimal but at the same time so aggressive, she challenged herself a lot in the use of the voice.

    Great work Tove Lo.

    Pure Eargasm. Best: Imaginary Friend & Flashes. You don't do drugs? but well, there is the same but soundly. One of the most waiting album of my life, and i'm not disappointed, 100% recomendable

    Slight, lyrical and spontaneous. Lady Wood is a different work of his Debut "Queen of the clouds", with catchy and well-produced songs. Strengths: "Influence," "Do not talk about It" and "Imaginary Friend".

    AMAZING ALBUM! Just when you thought pop music was failing us this year, Lady Wood came and saved it! Every song is amazing! It actually works great as a record rather then "single" reliant , where you should play it through from Fairy Dust, all the way to WTF Is Love, then loop it!

    Lady Wood can only be described as blunt and beautiful. With tracks like the album titled "Lady Wood", and the Chapter 2 opener, "Don't Talk About It", Tove Lo gives her listeners, whether male or female a glimpse of honest, raw passion and lust.

    Pure pop. This album could be included in the pop royalty masterpieces. Lo is showing her voice in all of its forms, experimenting with sounds and, as her first LP, she's telling an history to us.
    One of the best albums released in 2016, in my opinion, which deserves AT LEAST the success she had with Queen of the Clouds.

    Most recommended track and personal favorite: Imaginary Friend

    The first thing to come to mind when listening to this record is The Weeknd for sure, especially the use of sexuality to translate emotion and desire. Very pleased with this album and Tove Lo in general, she snatched us all!

    Tove Lo did a great job working on her sophomore album. It's classier and catchier but still raw and vulnerable. I love the story behind this record and really excited about the second part coming next year.

    This album was okay at best. Tove Lo is known for being daring, but it lack in this album. No offense but it felt like robots were the producers of this album. "Don't Talk About It" made me turn the volume up, different from the monotone feel the album gave.

    Su mejor álbum,canciones que despiertan sentimientos magicos al escuchar las letra de grandes de canciones como True Disaster,es muy conceptual y vale la pena escucharlo.

    It's been 3 days since this record came out. Friday evening, I told myself I'd review it with a 9/10, because it was really great, but some tracks felt short the first time I heard them.

However, I spent the last 3 days doing two things: studying and listening to Lady Wood, and after a weekend of unstoppable and ecstatic listens, I can now make sure that I dont want to, but I HAVE to give this album a 10. The follow-up to Queen of the Clouds is just as strong, and hits just as hard in all the right places. Nilsson described it as "darker and moodier" than her last effort, and that' something I agree on. The themes of the songs are very edgy, and the synths and beats hit so hard, all while preserving Lo's lyrics as deep and as personal as we've come to know them. Highlights are all over the album: 'True Disaster' is a killer track, that should easily climb the charts; 'Don't Talk About It' is a very deep song that sounds like an advice coming from a fellow superstar about how Tove should handle her fame; 'Imaginary Friend' is a song for when you feel desperate and alone; 'Lady Wood' is, for me, about embracing your differences. Nevertheless, the song that shines the most and is the diamond of the disc is 'Flashes', whose lyrics deal with the effect of fame on a former love. You can hear her pain when she soars with the amazing chorus: "When I **** things up / What about you?". The closer "WTF Love Is" felt like a filler after the first listen, but it turned out to be a grower.
    Finally, Tove Lo really stepped up her game with her sophomore studio album, and proved once again her high rank in the list of pop masterminds. Awesome record. Proudly: 10/10.    … Expand

    I've had this album on repeat since it came out less than a week ago. I didn't know if Tove would be able to top Queen of the Clouds, but I have to say, Lady Wood is just... awesome. It's the same Tove Lo we know and love, but there's something a little smarter about this album that makes it feel fresh. For starters, there are only 10 full songs, which kind of goes against the latest trendI've had this album on repeat since it came out less than a week ago.

For starters, there are only 10 full songs, which kind of goes against the latest trend of pop albums having tons of songs, and deluxe editions, etc. The great thing though is that there isn't one weak song on the album, so it's just Tove giving us the best of what she's got. It flows together very nicely, and there are plenty of hooks and catchy melodies that make this album sublime pop goodness. Which brings me to my next point. Tove's music isn't groundbreaking or exotic or anything like that. It's mainstream synth pop, but she executes it so well and seems to have so much fun with it that she stands well above the pack in this genre. I think this woman is seriously smart, and I can't wait to hear what she does next (although for now I'm happy with Lady Wood).

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Tove Lo is an singer of Hyper-Quality category. Lady Wood shiped the best side of Tove. The new era of artist still have a short film. The Fairy Dust apply an history based in lyrics of Lady Wood musics. Worth Remember who the album is an first part. Lady Wood (the second album of era) will be released in the next year.… Expand

    While there aren't as many standout singles this time around, the Swedish singer impressively maintains a consistent tone throughout, and its two-part structure adds to its listenability as an album experience.

    For all the explosive choruses and repeated synth trills, Lady Wood, a still-wonderful pop album, falls just shy of being truly great, from saying something truly memorable.
