Sep 23, 2014honestly it felt kinda empty for me, it had it's moments but it was forced for me but it deserves a 6 from me ..................................................................

Sep 28, 2014I don't really get it. I mean Perfume Genius have always shown restraint, which is unique in itself these days, and the space and emptiness of this album is quite refreshing. But only really on the clsoing track is there anything to really grasp onto in terms of a melody, some soul and a drumbeat. It may be my favourite album after a few more plays but right now it comes across as very overrated.

Oct 29, 2015none of it deems too surprising, in spite of its experimental production and almost the pure stretch to differentiation Perfume Genius clearly wishes to make, but non of it is bad either, there are emotional and memorable moments

Nov 26, 2014He lacks the humour, more explicit angst and emotional confidence of John Grant and lacks Garneau's devotion to melodrama and pop. He is hardly Stephin Merritt. He exists independently as a cultural explorer as well as simply a very fine, very sensitive songwriter.

MagnetNov 12, 2014Too Bright highlights the moments of buoyancy that dotted his first two outings--both of which sounded nothing if not dour on first listen--and setting the stage for Hadress as one off the most compelling new American songwriters of the last half-decade. [No. 115, p.61]

MojoNov 7, 2014It is a deeply odd but consistently compelling work. [Nov 2014, p.98]
