    Enjoyed almost every song in this album. The album has beautiful instrumentals and Dean has a unique voice in my opinion. Will definitely buy this one day once I get around to finding a vinyl or cd copy, listening to this was a fun experience overall and I highly recommend you listen to this great pop album.

    The best pop album of all time. Every song is beautiful, soulful, or energetic, and never fail to entertain.

    The result is, even more than Blunt's previous work, an enigmatic emotional tenor. [Nov 2014, p.62]

    His overall grasp of what he is doing has never been surer. [Dec 2014, p.93]

    Black Metal offers few definitive answers, but this time around the hazy images he's projecting have come into sharper focus.
