Aug 18, 2020Welcome to Conceptual Beach is a fully realized album that presses against being a fixed piece of art. Snippets of melody, popping drumbeats, and stray ideas appear, retreat, and reemerge, sometimes in different songs. As freeform and loose as the album sounds in places, these tags provide cohesion and all is pulled together through the comprehensive close of “Lark” and “Magicians.”

Aug 18, 2020The band’s most emotionally delicate and intricate record to date.

Aug 18, 2020The chances Young Jesus take here in a songwriting sense are commendable, and with technical chops to boot. But overall, it's not quite the powerfully compelling, or approachable, experience that Rositter will have you believe it is.
