    A thrilling and emotional experience from start to finish. An album that finds hope in the hopeless and new beginnings after a lost love. Immaculate production and pristine vocals from Weyes Blood. Definitely my top album of 2019

    Simply amazing. Nothing about this album can be criticized. Everything’s stunning; the lyrcs, the music production, the album cover. In fact, I descovered this terrific artist because I ran into this album in Spotify and loved the cover. 10/10

    She is Joni Mitchell's daughter. This album is majestic, deeper, introspective, reflective, cohesive. One of the greatest works of alternative.

    Melhores Faixa
    -Movies
    -Andromeda
    -Everyday

    Amei as temáticas do álbum e como ela aborda, tudo isso com uma voz angelical e uma produção absurda (que me lembrou filme de sci-fi as vezes)

    Perfect flow of the album with her unique one and only voice... best pop album ever since Lana Del Rey’s NFR and Lorde’s melodrama

    One of the most beautiful albums I have ever heard. It's unbelievable how much passion Weyes Blood displays throughout. It's as though she lets go of everything holding her back and isn't afraid to put every nuance of emotion and vulnerability out into the open.

    I have never bought a vinyl so quickly. This psychedelic folk-pop album is definitely worth your time. Just make sure you are in an open mind space since it could easily all go over your head.

    titanic rising isn’t just the 2019 AOTY. it is the album of the century.

    the dream pop surreal atmosphere in which we are involved during the whole EP is hard, if not impossible, to escape. we’re almost held hostage in the underwater childhood bedroom presented to us on the breathtaking cover during the 42 minutes of the LP. since i first heard it last year i still ALWAYS get    titanic rising isn’t just the 2019 AOTY. it is the album of the century.

    the dream pop surreal atmosphere in which we are involved during the whole EP is hard, if not impossible, to escape. we’re almost held hostage in the underwater childhood bedroom presented to us on the breathtaking cover during the 42 minutes of the LP.

    since i first heard it last year i still ALWAYS get completely speechless about the beauty and mystical feeling these songs contain. this is an album that never fails to make me feel like life is a wholesome experience worth living for - no matter how **** up i am atm. it has this strange power equivalent to a beautiful and soothing spring day right after a whole month of a rainy and foggy winter. it instantly makes me feel hopeful and positive in a way no other piece of art can.

    besides the special sentimental personal cliché value it has to me, i consider the album the most genius and well made album of probably all times. from beginning to end natalie takes us on a trip with its ups and downs, twists and turns, but no matter what happens, we all feel like it’s going to end up in a beautiful place.

    every single song sounds even more beautiful, well produced, lyrically superior to the precedent. it is an experience that starts on top and only gets higher - i cannot find a single moment where a song doesn’t meet the standards the others have settled.

    titanic rising is an album that will go down to me as probably my top 1 album of all time. its magical atmosphere and dreamy aesthetics will forever follow me wherever i might end up.

    One of ht best albums i've ever heard in my life, it is life-changing. For those who haven't the chance to listen, you're wasting your life. This girl is so talented and deserved to win the 2019's Grammy.

    OMG, this album is a master piece of art.

    There are no words to describe how great it is, the best album of 2019, Weyes Blood deserved a lot of awards, that some overrated fad did not deserve, the lyrics are completely beautiful, accompanied by spectacular sounds, a long road awaits this talented singer-songwriter.

    Dreamy, eerie, inventive pop/rock. Natalie Mering's droning, sometimes ghostly, sometimes angelic voice is beautiful against an array of production ideas that feel fresh while also coming off classic. An absolute joy to listen to.

    A crazy ambitious album that Weyes Blood somehow pulls off. So much melody and an immense amount going on but it all comes together. It's an album that I imagine Father John Misty would love or even has tried to make but has fallen short. Weyes Blood gets all the elements perfectly balanced without ever straying into self indulgence.

    Titanic Rising is an absolute masterpiece. Listening to the album I feel as though I'm sitting on the back porch of a farmhouse on a late August evening while simultaneously floating in an unfamiliar and eerie underwater world. Her vocal performance is stellar, and the orchestral tracks help emphasise the otherworldly vibe.

    In emotional terms Titanic Rising is immense – names like Annette Peacock, Linda Perhacs and Judee Sill come to mind, but only because it feels like so long since you’ve heard pop this epic yet unmannered. ... With tracks like the stunning “Something To Believe” lodging themselves into your heart with the sure knowledge that your relationship with this music will only deepen as the year unfolds.

    Titanic Rising is even more accomplished than putting Mering’s state of grace to music; with her 70s-inflected approach to songwriting, she succeeds in nothing less than recalibrating time.

    A strong contender for album of the year. ... Titanic Rising is remarkable for its breadth, effortlessly shifting from the 90-second ambient wash of the title track to Picture Me Better’s homespun take on the cosmic cowboyisms of Kacey Musgraves. Then there are Merings’ lyrics, evincing a similar shift in scale and scope.
