| 5.0 classic | cosmingurau | January 22nd 19 |
Easily top 10 best albums I have ever heard. Thematically and qualitatively consistent. Powerful, moving, sublime. The hypnotic, melancholic, addictive music fits the fragile, honest, alluring, yet decidedly strong voice and lyrics. Two People have improved upon Snakadaktal by a huge amount, and that was one of my favorite bands. This album would deserve 5/5 just for "Tied, To You" and "Something To Talk About", but all the other tracks truly deliver, as well. Simply put,this is some next level stuff, and I can't wait for more of their music!

It's kind of amazing how much immersive this album is given how spare the instrumentations are. The duo fused together many subdued genres, from downtempo to ambient pop to ambient house, for a nocturnal result. The first half perfectly manages to create an ethereal atmosphere, but the second one reminded me of the night, not for its palette of sounds, but for its ability to make me yawn.

First Body is a testament of how much you can do with the absolute minimum. The duo of musicians often have only two instruments in their disposition, but they use the minimalism, simplicity and many sided nature of synths to their advantage. If this album taught me anything, it's that you don't need an orchestra to create music fit for an operatic auditorium.

Good dream poppy melancholic album. The opener is an absolute jam and the first half of the record had me hooked, but the second half really drops in quality and I was frankly bored come the album closer. First half alone makes it worth a spin though. 3.6

An early intro to my regular listening habits in 2019. It conveys that sense of loss and grief in an entrancing manner, one not entirely untouched before, but done so well I listened to it twice in a row instead of doing the work I should have been doing in that time. If I were to place bets on something carrying through to the end of 2019, this would be it.

Could be a 4.5 but the porno sax in the first track just takes the edge off.

Some alluring stuff for sure, esp from the vocals (at least from the album's first half). An album worth hearing after an exhausting day at work, but for casual listening a diff experience is likely to follow. While still a great listing experience, I cannot help but hear this as a conditional album... What a start for 2019!
