Agnes Obel's first is also her most playful, most intimate record still.

jesus that cover, are we modern contemporary or 19th century miserable feminist? anyway piano bits are good but she cant rly sing and everything else is blah

4.5 superbBedex | May 13th 21

I can't be objective for one bit with this one, I know every single song almost note for note because of my maman and I have a lot of affection for the record. I do find that some of the later songs are not AS striking and memorable as in the first act, with some of the transitions not being quite ideal, and because I do prefer the first half of the record without hesitation that drops it a couple points. Thakfully the last two tracks pick things up quite well and we stay well afloat at a delightful, heartwarming 4.3

3.4 greatErwann S. STAFF | September 21st 20

A delicate nugget. A piano-centric piece of artsy pop-folk, this record plays upon soothing and mellow chords to let Agnes' beautiful voice take the lead. Given the - spare - use of strings, it has got a certain chamber music feeling. While I appreciate the aesthetic, it does lack a certain sonic variety to fully appeal to me. At least the record is short enough for that issue not to hinder the listening experience. A cozy album that'd work even better during cold winter nights.
