3.0 good | chtrenne | July 7th 18 | I wanted to like this (I really, really did). If I had to put my finger on something, I would say that their voices just weren't interesting enough to carry me past the first couple of songs. For all the talk about their lyrics, they weren't emotive enough to pull it off. Sorry. Interesting production, though.

3.5 great | Erwann S. STAFF | October 10th 22 | A great synthpop record whose most shining qualities ain't neither the synth nor the pop. It ain't the vocals either - too childishly soft spoken to bring any punch -, nope; it's all about the damn production, seamlessly fusing bubblegum aspirations with progressive pop songs.

5.0 classic | cjbizzlebizzle | December 31st 18 | As far as electropop goes this is the best of the lot in 2018 and it doesn't really feel that close. Rosa and Jenny of Let's Eat Grandma have known each other basically their whole lives and have been making music together for most of that time. Their first release 'I, Gemini' was juvenile and a collection of projects rather than a succinct, finely crafted album but it showed a lot of promise considering their age at the time. Thank god they continued because I'm All Ears is a magnificent experience that seemingly came out of left field. By all means this might be the most re-playable album of 2018 because, as the reviewer here notes, they really have a knack at mixing experimentation with catchy, well crafted pop songs. There are progressive elements to the music but they are mixed in so perfectly and the tracks are just too approachable and addictive to listen to. The longer tracks feel almost exploratory. The two also get so much rich content out of seemingly simple synth setups and production elements. This backdrop really allows the two vocalists to shine and be the stars of the show, as the should be in a pop record. Rosa and Jenny are up to the task. Their emotions and personalities are on full display as they discuss relationships, gender stereotypes and heartbreak and this personality is key to the records success. They come off as vulnerable and relate-able here and not as some pop icon or overproduced soulless singer behind a veil that you cannot get a feeling for. A group to keep an eye on, for sure.
