Thanks Acanthus! Yeah I wanted to make my first paragraph informative but I didn't want it to be
boring either so I fiddled a little with it ^^

Also, yay pos votes!

This gave us her self-titled debut in 2008 which was a pretty good indie pop offering which unfortunately never really managed to realize the heaps of potential she was obviously carrying around with her persona

Her newly acquired urge for making music gave us her 2008 self-titled debut album, a pretty good indie pop offering that revealed only a small fraction of her actual artistic potential.


that is exactly what she manages to showcase on her second effort Blonde

that's exactly what Blonde is all about.

Well written review, pos, but you should look after punctuation (commas) in your text and the flow of text in some sentences, which are listed below, along with a possible phrase rewording.

a simple lead-in by some choir you obviously don't care about

a simple lead-in by some choir you obviously don't care about,


After that managed to make you settle down, you'll immediately be blown away by the sheer amazing instrumentals on 'Adieu', which, together with a few other tracks like 'Golden Baby' and 'Verseau', makes up the 'pop' part of this album

As the listening session is continuing its way, the heir apparent to the aforementioned feeling of "domestic" comfort, is a wave of pure enthusiasm, which stems from the "pop" part of the album and namely, tracks like the instrumental "Adieu" or songs like "Golden Baby" or "Verseau".



One of the obvious strengths of this album is showcased here, being Béatrice's knack for blending genres together into a seemingly flawless mix, all while maintaining an impressive kind of flow throughout the whole album

One of the obvious strengths of this album is Béatrice's knack for blending genres together into a seemingly flawless mix and maintaining an excellent flow throughout her material.


When talking about 'Les Amours Devouées' I have to say that it also deserves a special mention because it really sounds like it was created from the aftermath of her other project, Armistice

While the songs in Blonde have a distinct personality of their own with the indie genre, some of them and especially "Les Amours Devouées", may be linked to Béatrice Martin's other project, Armistice



No matter how lovely, charming or whatever adjective you'd want to grace this album with the music becomes one should not forget the lyrical content, and Blonde's lyrics are nothing to laugh at

No matter how lovely, charming or whatever adjective one would want to grace this album with, its lyrical content is worthy of an honorable mention as well.
