May 11, 2018Their best since Bloom. Each and every track are highlights. The last 3 songs are the strongest stretch in their discography. This is a thick, dense album to get lost in. Can’t really say much else. If you thought the singles were great, you’re in for a treat. The album itself is even better than just the singles. I highly recommend. This will probably be my album of the year this year.

May 11, 2018This feels like a step forward from their last two albums, with beautiful and polished songs that could easily fit as a soundtrack of a road trip at night. The instrumentation feels soothing and expansive, and as you listen it definitely feels like a dream, which I didn't expect after the ethereal sounds of Depression Cherry. Definitely one of their best along with Bloom and Teen Dream.

May 16, 2018Wonderful album. One of my best album of the year so far! Beach house never disappointed.

May 13, 2018I desperately want to like this album but I'm finding it quite boring. The production is really nice but the songs aren't really hitting me like their older stuff. It's all a bit too placid, apart from the opening track which just sounds like a mess in my opinion. Lemon Glow has a nice vibe to it but there's nothing here that's giving me goosebumps like Teen Dream, Bloom & Depression Cherry did.

May 18, 2018surprisingly good in all possible musical senses, one of the best albums of this year so far
-
May 11, 2018On their new LP, Beach House steals you from reality and guides you through their dream-realm full of bellowing synths and vocal melodies so perfect they almost seem ethereal. This is Beach House's return to the indie throne and their strongest release in years.

May 16, 2019Arguably Beach Houses 2nd best release yet next to Bloom. Shoegaze influence is always a standout
-
Oct 9, 2022Beach House's seventh album, appropriately titled 7, is their best yet. So underrated.

Sep 10, 2018It’s hard to think of 7 as anything other than an extension of Beach House’s sound, incorporating slightly different, smaller ideas but all easily applied to their own syntax.
-
Sep 10, 2018Beach House is reaching for the moon once more on the beloved Baltimore duo's most stimulating aural experience to date.
-
May 16, 2018A short, precise album which is equal parts inventive and masterful.
