    With Heartbreak Weather Niall Horan has shown incredible growth from his debut album Flicker. On this record he clearly had more confidence to experiment with different sounds, but he also stayed true to who he is as an artist. My favourite thing about the album is how the songs tell a chronological story, instead of being separate.

On this record he clearly had more confidence to experiment with different sounds, but he also stayed true to who he is as an artist. My favourite thing about the album is how the songs tell a chronological story, instead of being separate. As the title describes, it gives you all the feelings that come with falling in love and then getting your heart broken. Niall once again showed that being the black sheep in a boyband won't matter in the end, it's musical talent that gets you further and will keep him in the industry for the long run! I suggest everyone to go have a listen, especially now that we're all quarantined and looking for something to do!!… Expand

    Heartbreak Weather is an incredible album with no skips! Is a very eclectic album, which will please all tastes. The central idea of ​​narrating your amorous misadventures using the mood is incredible, and we can identify that in each song. And Niall's voice is perfect!

    This album is really my favorite of Niall Horan, there are people who will say that it is basic and boring, but it is not about listening and coming to the conclusion that the album is boring, the songs have to be enjoyed and their lyrics analyzed. depth. Songs like "Arms of a Stranger", "Still" and "New Angel" are perfect and elevate the quality of the album.

    Niall Horan braves the storm of loss in his sophomore album. He did a great album concept including the artcover, the singles, the music videos, the tracklist reveal, the day by day reveal of some lyrics discovering videos an all social media... He really did a great job with this album, it's more sonically cohesive than whole discographies by other white male artists with guitars.

He really did a great job with this album, it's more sonically cohesive than whole discographies by other white male artists with guitars. There is no single skip in this album and from the production to lyrics it's incredible, his voice sounds wonderful and basically the whole album is out of this world. He broke the cursed of the second album and he did it better than his first and debut solo album! I really wish and hope him the best because he truly deserves endless success and love and happiness… Expand

    Niall Horan wrote a true heartfelt album. The passion throughout was undeniable. From the first track, ‘Heartbreak Weather’, to the final track, ‘Still’, he told a story.

    Even with a bruised heart, he's a charmer. [Apr 2020, p.87]

    After all the sentimental rigamarole, it’s tough to come away from Heartbreak Weather feeling any closer to Horan. He spends too much of the record bouncing between sounds and songwriting concepts to feel distinct.

    There are hints of experimentation, such as Nice to Meet Ya’s swaggering hybrid of Arctic Monkeys and Kasabian, but it’s the excellent title track’s flirtation with glossy, synth-tinged MOR that suggests where Horan might be headed next. Proof that it’s often the quiet ones you need to keep an eye on.
