UncutAug 27, 2015Loving, not by the spoonful but by the bucketful. [Oct 2015, p.80]
-
Jun 8, 2015There’s a real sense of optimism and summer to the record.
-
Jun 24, 2015It’s a massive, honest mess, loaded with love. And as such, it might even be called his most definitive album yet.
-
Jun 8, 2015Owens remains a naturally intuitive pop songwriter, and ultimately Chrissybaby Forever is a fresh slice of Californian good vibrations that arrives just in time for summer.
-
Jun 8, 2015Chrissybaby is 16 songs long, which might be more of this particular pleasant, low-stakes mood than you need at one uninterrupted stretch.
-
Jun 8, 2015Chrissybaby Forever is the music of Owens’ heart--unfiltered and unpolished, both to its credit and its detriment.
-
Jun 9, 2015Good moments are spread across 16 tracks, which is significantly more than any previous Owens’ effort, solo or otherwise, and the man’s sound has always been the opposite of unique. Over a prolonged tracklist, his invariant topic matter, coupled with his saccharine singing over slow-mid-tempo songs, becomes much too much.
