    2 is a special new chapter, inspired and beguiling. [Jul 2025, p.79]

    2 has come off as just a bit too haphazard and like editing practice to be fully immersive; but its bittersweetness and unusual, playful spontaneity are, like Shauf, not with their charms.

    The release of 2 is certainly a welcome surprise, even if the band brush aside much of what made them so compelling in the first place.

    With 15 short tracks stacked tightly into 37 minutes, 2 doesn’t always cohere, but it’s certainly playful, freewheeling, and occasionally inspired.

    The album is at its strongest when it leans into its own mysticality, sounding old-fashioned and contemporary simultaneously.
