    Excellent! Lipa's album bring us 90s pop mixed with disco music... LEVITATING must be single... We'll pray for it.

    Was pleasantly surprised by this album, It felt like it was a return to form after "Season High", which felt a bit confused, like they didn't know what general mood/genre they were going for (frenetic jumps between 80s rehashing, r&b throwbacks, dance).

    This one returns back to early releases, in that start-to-finish, it sounds more complete and maintains a good flow.

Yukimi's vocals, already one of the more dynamic singers as of late, has some new talents on display. "Another Lover" is a great entry point for this album, so smooth and flat out gorgeous.    … Expand

    As someone who has just gone through their discography, this is a good addition. Although I think that it's nothing groundbreaking, it is a good album to listen to. Love Yukimi's voice so much.

    In common with a fair amount of Little Dragon’s previous output though, New Me, Same Us seems to work better in small chunks than as an album as a whole. There’s something about the smooth, glossy sound that means that, after a while, each song seems to merge into one.

    Now more than ever, the escapist quality of music cannot be underestimated. Little Dragon heartily delivers on that front throughout New Me, Same Us, opening the door to a candy-colored world where the beats are chill and every word is sung softly by Nagano.

    For the most part, they sound like they’re having more fun than ever.
