May 1, 2022This was my introduction to Hatchie's work and it's a strong album to begin with. Each song invokes a sense of dreamy nostalgia while maintaining a sense of modernity. I'm left feeling a sense of peace and warmth by the time the album comes to a close.

Apr 29, 2022These 12 songs are denser in their instrumentation and production than Hatchie’s previous work. ... Regardless, the album is still imbued with Pilbeam’s established touches of enchantment and sensitivity.

UncutApr 27, 2022On her 2019 debut album Keepsake, Harriette Pilbeam, who records as Hatchie, showed an inclination to take her shoegaze-infused pop onto the dancefloor. That’s something continued on Giving The World Away. [Jun 2022, p.28]

Apr 26, 2022The album's aesthetics are vaguely mostly there, but their function feels overly superficial. Giving The World Away does raise the bar over Keepsake in that it explores a wider range of palettes (jangle pop, gazey noise pop, synth-pop) and backs itself with a more momentous set of beats, but this is largely undermined by Pitfall the Second: Hatchie the vocalist.
