Dec 14, 2021While a decent enough listen, there is very little here that is truly memorable or has me wanting to come back. I was underwhelmed by the hyped debut "Lush", again decent but not amazing. That had a distinctive lo fi vibe. "Valentine" is the opposite, shinier production and it sounds more ambitious but ultimately it failed to grab me as much as the critics promised.

Nov 23, 2021Young, female artist with indie cred, an ironic band name and dark lyrics? Check. Add 10 points. ... Seriously, this is a decent album, but 88? C'mon. Musically it's rather pedestrian. There's nothing really special or memorable here.

Nov 9, 2021Jordan’s second record proves that the singer is capable of oh-so much more.

Nov 8, 2021While her pure, clear voice is as expressive and engaging as ever, Valentine is more accessible and less interesting.

Nov 8, 2021Some of the naggier aspects of her music remain, especially her strained, prickly inflection, still somewhat forced and certainly an acquired taste. But all told, there's no denying that Valentine is a singular statement that is profoundly genuine at every turn.
