    Whether the mimicry is incidental or purposeful, Smitten is another enjoyable record. If Pale Waves wants to sound like Avril Lavigne, the Cure, or the 1975, critics be damned, their approach is successful.

    Baron-Gracie’s lyrics are more straightforward and candid than ever here.

    It is crisply clear and gritty, with a lovely bout of emo-tinged lyricism. It is surely to be considered the strongest body of work of their career, only to be outdone with whatever may come next. Smitten is the sound of a band infatuated with their art, ready for the future, and excited to be a part of it.
