Title: Unkind and Unwise
Review: This album survives beautifully, a meeting of gilded pop, mournful reflections, and jaunty spritefulness. No, it doesn't cohere perfectly as a masterpiece should, and yes a few tracks lean into a velvety postgraduate pretence.But please pay no attention to the two smarter-than-thou reviews that lie here. That they are riddled with offhand name-dropping to other bands, belie-ing the fact that the reviewers are playing streetwise critics rather than speaking from the heart.
