For a debut I would say this is very impressive. Heck for a regular album it is impressive. Her vocals are stunning, and makes relative successes of tracks like 10, which as a piano ballad would usually bore me out very rapidly. I'll concede that the tracks tend to overextend just a touch, and that they start feeling less memorable in the last third, but they remain all still good at a minimum. The unfold with the drums on 1 is noiche even though the intro is not the best, 2 is nice and catchy, 3 is nice and more relaxed, 4 is such a good song, 5 is a nice track taken from the EP but the male vox didnt bother me as much here, 6 is a surprise being weirder than anything else she's shown us so far and frankly I find it super cool. I'm not sure about the transition into the much softer 7 but it remains a nice track, followed by an even less explosive but still nice 8. 9 is again softer, and this is where the tracks were starting to blur into one another - the album could've ended there honestly. 10 is the ballad which does help a bit by changing things up, but it's still an overextended piano ballad. 11 is a nice song with nice guitar, and I really appreciate 12's intention to shake things up near the end which much more of a beat and explosive track, although it is not the best execution in the world (who mixed these cymbals) it remains a success. 3.85
