    3AM (La La La) feels like an album to lift Confidence Man up to the next level. As Brat Summer draws to a close, it seems like we’re about to prepare for a 3AM winter, and this will be the soundtrack.

    3AM (La La La) has so much energy it makes Tilt look positively geriatric.

    ‘3AM (LA LA LA)’ is Confidence Man at their raviest, their naughtiest, their most confident.

    Fun, naughty, and a little nasty, 3AM stretches the typical party-friendly novelty sound that Confidence Man perfected on their first two albums, showcasing artistic growth with a laser-focused intent to keep your body moving late into the night, when it feels like anything can (and will) happen.

    ‘3AM (LA LA LA)’, their most assured collection yet, proves they definitely have the tunes to match their outsized personas.

    There are plenty of people making dance-pop right now, but none of them are as ferociously bombastic as Confidence Man.

    3AM’s muted irony dulls the sparkle, leaving the cracks more visible. The album doesn’t have any disastrous lows—but it never quite surpasses that initial dopamine rush, either.

    The Prodigy are an influence on tracks like “So What” but the sound of KLF and Underworld underpins “Sicko” and “I Can’t Lose You”, while Madonna’s ’90s collaborations with William Orbit are in the background of several tunes. [Dec 2024, p.33]

    While it is enormous fun, there should be no expectation of a 'shock of the new'; it can feel, somewhat, like ConMan are treading water.
