    Just i love the catchy song but it's not for me. i prefer Joe's solo career, this is my opinion, really love the type of music in the past, yeah this si unusual but i dont like it really much.

    I thought they were just this band with one great hit (Cake by the Ocean) and then nothing special and good. I can say I was wrong. They are really good. They are catchy, they sound free and careless and you really enjoy listening to this album. After a while it can become weird because it all seems the same but once you give it a proper shot you might actually end up loving it.

Because that it just golden. I really like how he plays with it, how confident he is. He can sell it. His range is incredible and the voice definitely is the best thing this band has to offer. Expand

    My favourite 'new' album in a long time. A very different kind of music than Joe Jonas' previous projects but it goes to show that his voice can suit different genres.

    Now Joe’s back again with DNCE’s first full-length, and this time he’s dispensing with metaphor altogether.

    A joyous and undeniably fun album. Jonas has developed into a deeply self-aware and confident performer whose brightly hued and clever musical taste is on display throughout DNCE.

    Thankfully, the group ultimately finds its groove with retro, funk-heavy tracks like new single “Body Moves” and “Blown,” which is about exactly what you imagine it is. It’s better for the band—and everyone else--when they don’t overthink it.
