| It doesn't have the texture or instrumentation of a Southtown, but the songwriting is stronger and the tone is more fun than it has been in quite a while |

| Lol, top trending all week and no review? It's quite good. Wonderful mix of both their heavier and lighter sensibilities. The lyrics are kind of weird at a few points, particularly "Too Close/Too Late," like this is supporting a companion comic or something. And "Angel Eyes" doesn't standout much. Overall, though, this is a very enjoyable 25 minutes. |

| Man, this fun. The fact that it's been done before is the point. I love their spin on it. A lot of great songs here. "Grey In the Blue" is so good. A banger from start to finish. |

| Definitely leans into the electronic stuff over the rock, but there are some GORGEOUS songs here. "Under the Stars" is absolutely beautiful. Wish this had a full review. Feel like this album went under the radar in 2021. |
