May 17, 2021This really is a stone-cold masterpiece. Who knew grief would prove to be the tenor of the times? Ignorance charts it every bit as exquisitely as Cassandra Jenkins' remarkable Overview on Phenomenal Nature. Subdivisions could have been written in the car alongside Jenkins' on Hard Drive. And it's every bit as astounding. Can't imagine anything bettering these two any time soon.

Feb 20, 2021Primera vez que escucho a esta banda, me dieron una primera impresión simplemente inmaculada.

Feb 5, 2021First Weather Station album I've heard and it's just immaculate... her voice and the instrumentation are so gorgeous on every song. Her songwriting is outstanding, and every song has pleasant surprises. STRONG contender for album of the year.
Favorite tracks: Parking Lot, Heart, Subdivisions -

Jul 21, 2021One of my favorite albums this year, probably the most "complete" I've heard. Incredible lyrics, musicianship, pacing.. It only falls flat with some of the slower numbers, but even those songs are lyrically rich. It won't blow you away with big choruses, but it's a smooth, effortless listen
-
Mar 5, 2021Oh my God! Such great songwriting material in this record! Talks about so unconventional things, especially the recurring theme about nature and the ways she parallelizes it with people's ways in life.

Apr 25, 2021Ignorance is a great album, the lyrics are beautiful, Tamara’s vocals are stunning and over all it’s just a beautiful project, the songs flow together very nicely and it’s an easy listen but a great one for sure.
-
Feb 5, 2021Spectacular album! Fantastic emotion and lyricism. The opening "Robber" really captivates the listener, and you'll instantly fall in love with the catchy lyrics of "Tried to Tell You." This is a must listen!
Favorite Tracks: "Robber," "Atlantic," "Tried to Tell You," 'Parking Lot," & "Separated." -
Feb 7, 2021A beautiful album with lush, dazzling production. The mixing is decent, but Tamara's voice could've performed better with harmonies or being mixed louder. Overall, an excellent album. (sorry i accidentally entered it as a 0.. i hate it here).

Feb 5, 2021Her vocal deliverance makes this album one that is impossible to ignore. As calming as it may be, you get to share her thoughts. The entire musical arrangement shows versatility which goes well with her vocals on every track of the album.

Aug 16, 2021The Weather Stations reminds me of Joni Mitchell, but the album itself is decent. 7.5

Feb 18, 2021i can't notice trasitions since all the tracks sound the same, Not that at first moment it sounds ok, but it gets boring really rapidly
-
Dec 28, 2021Not good, not bad. Very forgettable. Don't see the appeal at all or any desire to listen to it again.

Mar 10, 2021Nicely produced I guess but it’s as dull as dishwater. The songs, for all the trendy brass flourishes, are lifeless. Same sound, same (personally I find it annoying) vocal delivery every track. Lots of people seem to love ‘Robber’. I found it really difficult to stick with after that track. Each to their own.

Mar 11, 2021i mean i don’t know what’s wrong with pitchfork, they are so tasteless... this album is bad but nice try

Mar 1, 2021While there are many masterful qualities to what Tamara Lindeman has created with this record, more of the introspective numbers such as ‘Trust’ and ‘Robber’ would have made for a more sonically rewarding body of work. Otherwise, this is a vivid and vibrant return.
-
Feb 9, 2021What's being attempted here is sensational, an unmissable combination of common emotions and abstract anxieties that shouldn’t work. And yet, when Lindeman shares with us, these songs explode with the air of something incredible.
-
Feb 8, 2021Instrumentally, Ignorance transcends the traditional folk that The Weather Station tirelessly perfected over the previous four albums. With an ever-expanding palette of sonics at her disposal, Lindeman weaves these tales of turmoil and regret through the usage of everything possible – horns, strings, several subtle non-acoustic guitars, and most prominently the piano. To reach the levels of awareness she sought required another level of sound, and it crackles throughout Ignorance.
