Jul 22, 2021‘Temporary Highs In The Violet Skies’ doesn’t broaden Aalegra’s sound or lyrical content greatly, and there are certainly points where she could push things further forward. But in continuing to be so open and expressive about love, hope, and loss, she makes it feel possible for the rest of us.
-
Jul 26, 2021An addicting 46-minute listen that grows with consecutive approaches.
-
Aug 17, 2021An album that fulfills the promise Aalegra showed on Feels and Ugh, Those Feels Again.
-
Jul 23, 2021It’s a safe follow-up to the previous breakout project, serving as an ideal reference point for when she fully decides to take wholesale risks with her sound.
-
Jul 22, 2021It’s evocative and complex enough to establish Snoh Aalegra as a name worth remembering, even as it leaves you wondering what it might sound like when she finally faces the full extent of her feelings.
-
Jul 22, 2021The “highs” are as potent and heady as ever but ultimately, they’re ephemeral.
-
Jul 22, 2021What makes this more than merely a trip down memory lane is the always-inventive production and Aalegra’s elegant, preternaturally smooth voice, which she uses to chronicle the neglected fringes of minor romantic disappointment. Although catchy choruses haven’t historically been a prerequisite of her chosen style, the widespread absence of memorable melodic hooks does feel notable.
