  1. 8.0 |   Uncut

    The songs are orthodox but unusually clever. Print edition only

  2. 8.0 |   Mojo

    A winner from top to bottom. Print edition only

  3. 8.0 |   All Music

    Feels like a proper album and meets the same high bar set by his previous work

  4. 6.0 |   Rolling Stone

    It's all fetching, if tough to fully love — which may have been Benson's intent all along
    Read Review

  5. 6.0 |   NME

    A dependably enjoyable set of bulky, countrified rock songs
    Read Review

  6. 5.0 |   Drowned In Sound

Loyle Carner  hopefully!

The sounds are slightly different here than on previous albums and his tentative sojourn into singing is a success because his voice connects as easily as his rapping does Albumism

Lorde  Virgin

Lorde trades in her secrecy and mystique for a tremendously healing, desperately relatable record that cements her mark as her generation’s defining artist Northern Transmissions

Lorde  Virgin

On the uncomfortable paths of the 28-year-old’s fourth album, slam-dunk bangers are substituted with reinvention and restraint surrendered through hushed, reflective, and carnal synth-pop vestiges Paste Magazine
