3.1 good | Erwann S. STAFF | July 30th 21 | Chillwave sporting a dream pop coat to hide how shallow it truly is - with success! Of course each song is pleasant, cute, and feels like an invitation to sip some mojito on a beach. But also, once you've heard one song, you've heard them all. It might be a great song, but it's repeated over and over again. No wonder the genre quickly died to be reborn in a meme-er fashion.

3.5 great | Alabaster Jones | January 28th 15 | Washed Out is one of the biggest faces in the chillwave genre, and for good reason. His 2009 EP Life of Leisure was an excellent showcase of his ethereal, almost lo-if production. Though his debut album, Within and Without, was inconsistent and in some places boring, he is back on his game with Paracosm. With a focus on simple, catchy melodies and beautifully flowing tracks, his sophomore record is a nice improvement. "It All Feels Right" has absolutely infectious synth work, "Weightless" and "All I Know" have soothing vocals ,with a nice acoustic guitar background on the latter, and the title track stands up as one of the best songs he's created. It takes all the great things about the aforementioned tracks and combines them skillfully. Overall, a solid and pleasant album from Washed Out.r

3.0 good | ILJ | August 21st 13 | It sounds pretty, but that's about it. Good for background listening, but not really an enveloping listen.

4.0 excellent | SalteyBacon | August 15th 13 | An album that is a different take on the sub-genre Greene has been put in, can be considered as a bridge album to something greater. Wonderful Sounds being put on this and can be only heard as one piece and not as 9 songs.
