Sep 11, 2023Otra joya de mac demarco, solo que está vez un poco infravalorada, hay muchos temas que ahora se han vuelto virales en las redes sociales
-
Feb 26, 2023Although is not as moody and magical as his other albums, this old dog is still full of that DeMarco's usual goofyness.

Apr 4, 2021My favourite Mac Demarco album no doubt! I love almost every song! Beautiful compositions, and lyrically beautiful and poignant aswell!

May 5, 2019Out of Demarco's discography I keep coming back to this album. It has the most replay value out of all his albums and it has the best flow. There is a cohesive chill vibe on this album that is both joyful and sad at the same time. 9/10

Aug 2, 2017Another fantastic album from Mr. Mac Demarco. The vibe is comparable to his past work, but his lyrics are more matured, and his energy is more focused and controlled. Not a bad track on this album.

Jul 6, 2017This Old Dog is quite a sad and depressing tracklist once you tend an ear to Mac's heartfelt lyrics. But there is still just that ounce of goof to make this album such a great listen.
-
May 14, 2017This is a pleasant and easygoing work that may not be as sonically brilliant as DeMarco may have aimed for, but has enough ambition and uniqueness within musical layers to be a worthwhile listen for most general audiences. My Score: 127/180 (Good) = 7.1/10

May 5, 2017While This Old Dog isn't as magical as Mac's earlier material it is another great album. It's more somber and less energetic than his earlier work, but it's more quality jangle-pop from one of the music world's better new artists.
-
May 5, 2017I'm not sure if it was my personal hype and excitement for this album, or being high on nyquil, but something about this album made me giddy. The jangly guitar, the great vocals, the way the drums and bass are almost a single instrument. Mac obviously put a lot more work into this album, and it really paid off.

May 5, 2017Although less energetic that his last albums, "this old dog" has plenty of nostalgia attached to its songs and that's the main flow of the album, and it's not a down, instead, Demarco made a beautifully crafted album

May 25, 2017Despite having moments that tip it toward being his most “challenging” album lyrically (if being challenging has anything to do with being serious), This Old Dog might be his least interesting instrumentally and musically.
-
MagnetMay 18, 2017The more significant development is one of subtle, writerly progression. [No. 142, p.53]
-
May 15, 2017DeMarco has always worn his talent lightly, but finally he sounds focused, reflecting on relationships like a millennial Cat Stevens, particularly those with his absent father and his long-term girlfriend.
