    I keep coming back to this album, and is currently now my favorite, passing St. Vincent, Jane Weaver and holding off Billie Eilish....
    It is pop and it may have some simple hooks, but it still grows on you, Lost In Los Angeles and the final title track keep playing in your head days after and eventually make you come back for another album listen.

    It’d be a disservice, though, to dismiss the album (or, even, embrace it) as nothing more than mindless fun. Save for penultimate ‘Stacking Chairs’—a satisfying synthesis of the band’s two modes—most of the singles are buried toward its beginning. Left open is a space for much tenderer moments.

    Today We're The Greatest boasts a gentler nature than Lost Friends. [May 2021, p.31]

    Middle Kids haven't quite found a way to articulate their sudsy emotions with deft intention and control. But if you're looking for pristine pop that, admittedly, sounds really, really good, you can't go wrong with this pleasant diversion.
