    a superb collection of songs; intelligent, fun, funky and meaningful all at once, DJO shows that Twenty Twenty was no one off and that Joe Keery is a seriously talented songwriter with a huge future.

    DJOs' sophomore album is a staple for how a brilliant follow up album should be made. The album draws inspiration from classic 70s'/80s' musicians such as Bowie, The Talking Heads, and many more, whilst inputting a healthy dose of his own personal flare and traces of "Twenty Twenty". With some tracks being a grand and full experience chocked full of rich tones and expansive synths, andDJOs' sophomore album is a staple for how a brilliant follow up album should be made.

With some tracks being a grand and full experience chocked full of rich tones and expansive synths, and others being a more down to earth listening experience with tracks such as "Figure You Out" and "Climax" coming to mind. This album is everything a fan of DJO could've asked for and more.… Expand

    I put this album in advance 8 out of 10. For how beautiful the previous album was. This one needs to be eaten more. One thing is clear - Djo is wonderful.

    One of the best albums I've ever listened to in my life, I managed to listen to 210 songs from this album in just one week, the first track "Runner" makes you feel like you're at the beginning of a 90's movie, and throughout the album, you'll connecting and feeling more and more intimate with the sound of the album, the vocals, the rhythm, just everything about this album is perfect, thankOne of the best albums I've ever listened to in my life, I managed to listen to 210 songs from this album in just one week, the first track "Runner" makes you feel like you're at the beginning of a 90's movie, and throughout the album, you'll connecting and feeling more and more intimate with the sound of the album, the vocals, the rhythm, just everything about this album is perfect, thank you for this album DJO… Expand

    DECIDE is a record about cycles and breaking them, about regrets and new beginnings, and finding the beauty in change. It doesn’t suggest decisiveness; it commands it.

    Decide is a fun, off-kilter synth-pop album that proves Keery’s talent, but by its conclusion, a clearer picture of its maker fails to emerge.

    Djo yet again proves an adaptable vehicle for such madcap energy and chameleonic shifts in style, an earnest and well-finished delve into another sphere of Keery’s artistic voice.
