    Anywhere But Dancing tends to plod, but as a whole, Mayberry the solo artist is a strong testament to honouring the entirety of yourself.

    With this album, she steps confidently out of CHVRCHES’ shadow, firmly establishing herself as a unique talent and compelling voice in her own right, with an exciting future ahead.

    Vicious Creature is a wilder ride than might be expected -- at times, it feels like these songs have been pent up inside Mayberry for years -- but it's great to hear her own her music so fully.

    An album that manages to be poignant and pointed without sacrificing any of its unabashed sparkle, ‘Vicious Creature’ adds even more dimension to the Chvrches singer; a sonic origin story that’s been well worth the wait.

    As solo records go, Mayberry’s first is fun and often touching, but like many before, it is trying to find its identity.

    Vicious Creatures is a sometimes uneven, but never less than intriguing, listen, and kicks off Lauren Mayberry’s solo career in impressive fashion.
