God tier hooks and vocal melodies, but I do find myself frustrated with the production often enough

The hooks in this album are perfect. The energy lulls a little in the second half, but 'Archie, Marry Me' and 'Party Police' are pop classics (with the latter being a really clever song that only slowly reveals how sad it is).

Beautiful Dream Pop record. It has super rememberable hooks and great aesthetics. Basically, it checks all the boxes for a fun listen even after many spins.

Some very nice tracks, but an example of album where the vocals don't always work well for the music and are far too ubiquitous. By 5 I had enough of her voice, and there were still four tracks to go. 8 is fun for example, but within the album it doesn't work as well because the constant, candid voice becomes too much after a while. It's especially not too great on slower, calmer tracks - on the candid upbeat tracks like the jammy 1 or the jangly 4 it works quite well actually. 2 has a fun catchy chorus but I found the vocie too nasally on the verse, while 3 calms things down and is more subdued, starting off quite beachy and unfolding in a pop direction, quite jammy as well overall. 5 is the first track that I felt truly weak, and 6-7 were other examples of slower songs not working very well here and her voice saturating the lsitener a little bit. 9 is the only chill track in this second half that kinda works with its synthy sounds. Overall to me this sounds like a promising but quite immature band putting out a couple bangers amongst a lot of tracks that need improving. 3.5

Nice twee/jangle/dream pop with that happy'n'innocent romantic vibe that errrrybody loves. The almost surf rock guitar sound accentuates this summery feel. If all tracks are cool, none here (or very few other indie pop tunes) can match "Archie, Marry Me", the kind of song very few people know about, but those who know it, love it. This song particularly encapsulates what's so great in this band: the vocal melodies, oh lord they are so infectious.
