    Much more melodic than previous albums and better for it with the usual brilliance. The visualisers that go with each track are amazing.

    I'm glad that they decided to release an album again. Loved it, "The Ladder", "This Time, This Place" and "Breath" are my personal favorites. Hoping to see them on tour as well.

    Finally new album from Röyksopp! Loved it! My three favorite tracks are Breathe, Impossible and The Mourning Sun.

    It’s a satisfying ride. This smooth and consistent journey through nostalgia and the energy of new ideas means that ‘Profound Mysteries’ parts one and two stand up as latter-day career triumphs for Röyksopp.

    A fine piece of work here, both profound and mysterious. Hopefully we won’t have to wait another eight years for the next one.

    The best songs on Profound Mysteries operate within those comfort zones [midtempo, instrumental tracks], making it more of a return to form than even The Inevitable End, but Röyksopp still trip themselves up.
