    My first endeavor into Deplume is a rocky one that leaves mixed results. It can feel oppressive such as on "do you know a human being when you see one?" then become ethereal in the vein of Julianne Barnwick. It's filled with enough beautiful moments to be worth listening to but in a trimmed playlist as the albums hour runtime is embarrassingly noticeable and can leave you thinking "thisMy first endeavor into Deplume is a rocky one that leaves mixed results.

    ‘GOLD’ is an album that offers a homely atmosphere whilst questioning the interior of that home. It is wise in its approach – urging the need to face internal dilemmas that have been ignored for far too long.

    Restraint, patience, trust: time and again they make GOLD sound like an incredibly wise record.

    Though-provoking yet full of fun, DePlume's willingness to dig dep has turned up a genuine treasure. [May 2022, p.88]
