Aug 16, 2019III lacks what made Banks' previous records so interesting and it suffers from it.

Jul 17, 2019While she can’t always shake the anodyne songwriting that plagued her past work, it’s still her best album to date.

Jul 15, 2019As with all the best sets, it’s coherent but not repetitive, the ghostly Auto-Tune choir, which features on most tracks, sighing and whispering encouragement behind Banks’s increasingly empowered words. There are shades of Bon Iver and Billie Eilish in her layered, subtle sound, but also a rare, steely delicacy all her own.
