May 9, 2017Depois do maravilhoso "Too Bright", Mike Handreas retorna ao mundo da música com o viciante e harmônico "No Shape", que mergulha em canções sobre amor proibido, como em "Slip Away", e "Die 4 You" que descreve sobre sacrifício por aqueles que amamos.

May 5, 2017Mike has found a way to improve his musical carrier even more, with a more expressive and beautiful album. This is without doubt his best production in an album, lyrically and instrumentally.

May 5, 2017His most extroverted and introspective album yet, Perfume Genius exudes confidence and acceptance of his gay identity by creating a compelling collection of beautiful, at times upbeat and at times melodic songs that has shown his progression as a musician and as a human being.

Feb 20, 2020Three years later and I can honestly say that this is one of my all-time favorite albums. I love every moment from the crystalline piano opening to the calm reassurance of the closing lyrics.

Oct 6, 2018I've never heard anything like this album, or honestly, like anything released by Perfume Genius. Whom I've only recently discovered. Melodic, sensual and at times, very dark and complex altogether. A beautiful and well refined record that I find myself coming back to at least once a week.

May 11, 2017Mike Handreas, has created an album with an ambiance filled with queer struggles of not "shaping" into the mold of society. With some stunning heavy synthesizers in "Otherside" and "Slip Away", but also with softer songs like "Die 4 you" and "Run me through". Truly creating one of the best albums of 2017.

MagnetJun 28, 2017Despite lyrics contending with crippling anxiety, suicide and relationship strife, what ultimately emerges in a celebration of the defiant act of loving and living fully in the face of a world gone mad. [No. 143, p.59]

May 31, 2017Perhaps his most assured and confident album.

May 19, 2017These pop-forward moments are frontloaded on No Shape, extravagant and baroque. The soaring production value is not accompanied by conceptual upending or reinvention, but rather extends into a grand sort of sequel vision of Perfume Genius.
