    Perhaps their least remarkable record, from its messaging which has grown increasingly unrelatable outside of religious contexts, and a collection of instrumentals which are another iteration of a sound previously travelled on more groundbreaking records. But don’t forget, they’re still firmly within zeitgeist territory.

    The highlights are "TH", "RL", "KTYWS" and "WAL", which all dig deep into Quincy Jones=style late-70s boogie and disco: a riot of rubbery, pitchwheel-assisted synth basslines, smart horn stabs and Cleo Sol's flirtatious, harmony-laden vocals. [Aug 2025, p.37]

    It's a more straightforward offering than their previously tangential records, though no less compelling for it. [Aug 2025, p.79]

    For this one — their best, or at least most accessible, album in years, a sumptuous serving of R&B filled with winks to ‘70s and ‘80s R&B and especially classic Michael Jackson — they outdid themselves.
