2.7 average | Erwann S. STAFF | September 26th 23 | Immunity is the case of a singer-songwriter album that is carried (hard) by its production instead of the singing or songwriting. Sometimes the songs are up to the soundscape they travel in ("Bags"), but most of the time, they don't.

3.5 great | Bedex | July 23rd 20 | Don't feel super convinced by this. It feels hesitant, like she's still looking for her direction and trying different things at once. There's autotune that feels completely out of place (cf 3 although I like the instrumental ending or the boring first half of 11 bring this down a half point), randomly distorted bits (on the otherwise French radiocore 7, a weird thing to do really but a passable song still), etc. There's also a lingering Ellis feeling of this all being 'boring nice' and bland, but it's not always there. To me Immunity is most successful when clairo sticks to a cohesive direction throughout a song, and that's most commonly on tracks with electronica leanings and strong beats (sometimes evocative of hip hop what). The sunny afternooney 2, 4 sorta although the vocal fxing feels like an attempt to give the song flavour it doesn't have, the kinda jammy 6, 10 with its nice vocal performance, and the second half of 11 fall in that category. 3 or 5 show how confusing the direction on this is, like the tracks don't know what they want to make you feel. 5 is a nice picnic soundtrack though I guess. For the rest this is generally fine, but forgettable. 3.25

3.5 great | Doublez38 | August 17th 19 | To begin with, I would say that it's rare enough to mention it and satisfying not to find these first great hits on his LP. His Dream Pop is pleasant to listen to and the whole album whether it's the singles or the other tracks are of a good quality. It is both entertaining and relaxing. On the other hand, as I listen to it, I find that the album tends to lose its value, because it is probably due to the lack of innovation and a feeling of déjà vu. However, she is still young, and I have no doubt that one day she will be able to offer an album much more memorable than this one.
