Jun 2, 2017This album is one of alt-J's more consistent albums. It's short, and sweet. The lyrics are great, and the music is more upbeat than their previous material. Were I to say a problem with this record it would be their version of House of the Rising Sun; it's a little boring.

Jun 5, 2017Una mezcla de moods/tracks que son un mundo con propia vida cada uno y muy distintos entre sí, sin embargo tan buenos que dan la impresión de suceder con mucha velocidad, creando la sensación de una entrega sólida.

Jun 29, 2017What a fantastic album, definitely one of the best albums I have listened to this year. I was blown away, it is positive, upbeat and definitely a strong recommendation for the masses. I absolutely loved everything about it. Started off strong & maintained throughout. I can't wait to listen to it again, and again.

Jun 11, 2017A nice attention to detail in the deliverance of the sound as well as the crucial harmonic structures rounded out a cool and pleasant work, but more prominence and direction within the exposed melodic layers would have made it even greater. My Score: 132/180 (Solid) = 7.3/10

E' un bel disco, molto lento rispetto al resto che ho sentito degli Alt-J.
Newman da prova di essere un ottimo cantante capace e il suono generale del disco è ottimo. Interessante la traccia di chiusura che fa pensare ad un inno religioso.
I pezzi migliori sono però Deadcrush, 3WW e Adeline per me. -

Jul 19, 2017In Cold Blood follows and is excellent, with code-like vocals and a brass-funk cascade drenching a menacing chorus. Hit Me Like That Snare is alt-J flexing their nerdiness, and Deadcrush is great. The final three tracks of the record are painfully boring and terminally so.

Jun 23, 2017Alt-J’s retelling of this age-old tale of ill repute has less edge than a mesh sack of Babybel cheeses.

Jun 19, 2017It adds up to a disjointed, uneasy compilation of songs, with the band seemingly refusing to conform to expectation.
