Mar 27, 2020One of the most incredible debut albums of the year so far.
-
Mar 26, 2020Sorry have somehow managed to mould something immediate and accessible but undeniably in their own image. It’s a truly special debut, one that makes strange magic at every turn.
-
Mar 26, 2020925 retains all the elements that have previously made Sorry such an intriguing and compelling proposition whilst adding a new sheen to their sound. It’s a thrilling and thoroughly modern album that manages to be experimental, dangerous, swaggering, unique, and also hugely accessible.

Q MagazineApr 7, 2020The sonic scope here is far wider, incorporating both industrial and squawking jazz into something that chimes perfectly with uncertain times. [Jun 2020, p.106]
-
Mar 30, 2020Sorry is exactly the shot in the arm that indie-rock has been missing lately – a fearless band that has set out to make its mark on the new decade, and with 925, already has.
-
Mar 27, 2020An authentic and contemporary guitar sound, ‘925’ is a snappy and raw blend that bounces the listener into the more unexpected edges of the imagination.
-
Mar 26, 2020Over the course of 13 tracks, Sorry drifts into a wide range of sounds and experiments with subtlety. Their chameleonic approach is never garish, with strong songs being the main takeaway and all the experiments with production and style just the weird icing on the cake.
-
MojoMar 26, 2020Nothing is ever explained, but ambiguity only reinforces Sorry's wonderfully slippery presence. [Apr 2020, p.95]
-
Apr 6, 2020On 925, Sorry lovingly poke fun at themselves and at rock history—but they also prove they’ve got the talent to go further than their gags.
-
Apr 1, 2020We can chalk these relatively minor missteps up to inexperience or over-excitement at finally releasing an album, and when you consider the heights that Sorry reach at points on 925 then it’s entirely forgivable. Overall, it would be hard to call 925 anything other than a great success, and one that should see Sorry’s star rise even higher – that’s if the public can get on board with their slightly unhinged view of things.
-
Mar 27, 2020925 is a cohesive, enjoyable, drug-infused debut about two longtime friends trying to make sense of being young in a dreary world. Despite a few hiccups, the record is a moody and exciting treat by an act to keep your eyes and ears on.
-
Mar 30, 2020925’s most hedonistic narratives might be cause for condemnation, but let’s not cancel Sorry yet—the album’s more grounded poems suggest that the band are perceptive enough to render their loftiest tales with scorn.
-
Mar 30, 2020925 packs in more than a few disruptive ideas. But Sorry haven’t yet acquired the musical vocabulary to pull them off.
-
Apr 27, 2020There are no bad songs on 925, but the songs I enjoyed are pretty scattered. ... It will be interesting to see where their music goes in the future to see how they develop, but for now, Sorry haven't quite fully arrived.
-
Mar 26, 2020Too many of the tracks dissolve into an atmosphere-for-the-sake-of-it sludge, yanking you into consciousness only every once in a while.
