4.5 superb | Lucman | February 14th 19 | 2014 was a big year for me. It was the year I graduated from school for one thing. It was also the ryear I started dipping my toes into genres I, up until then, had never explored. And it was the ryear I first fell in love with Copeland with their gorgeous reunion record, Ixora. That album rplayed a massive role in shaping my musical taste today and I still return to it regularly. Just rover four years later we finally get to hear its follow-up. In short, Blushing is everything I was rhoping for with just enough room to grow and mean as much to me today as Ixora did to me five years rago.

0.0 | Observer EMERITUS | February 19th 19 | This is an example where good songs that show growth for the band in question are hurt by very pretty, over-the-top production choices.

4.5 superb | Cayde618 | February 15th 19 | Ixora wasn't the bread and butter I was into in 2014, where at the time basic cookie cutter CCM or mainstream pop filled my shelves. But after almost 5 years of exploration, Copeland handed an album that was magically softening and powerfully captivating. While not personally full of perfection Copeland still shows beauty in patience.

5.0 classic | maclood | February 14th 19 | A perfect follow up to Ixora, my favorite album of all time. Only time will tell if this has the same lasting power and resonance, but I am beyond impressed by this album.

3.5 great | Defmytones | February 14th 19 | Hoping this will grow on me, but didn't have anywhere the same impact Ixora or YAMS had on first few listens. Probably their most mellow work yet, with a few surprises.

3.0 good | Barksdale | June 7th 22 | Best Tracks: Pope, Lay Here, As Above So Alone, Strange Flower, It Felt So Real.

4.0 excellent | Painless | January 13th 20 | While this album is very good the aura of it can only sustain me to bear it as Excellent, perhaps because Strange Flower has worn off of me for some reason a tad.

3.5 great | Chino smoking it up! | December 16th 19 | its very well done...goes to much on hiphop and auto-tuning for my tastes at times, but the indie
vibe parts are very inventive. Listened 2 times and def went from a 3 to 3.5. The solo on
Colorless was unexpected.

3.5 great | Doublez38 | December 11th 19 | Blushing is a super beautiful modern album, emotionally touching. Going after Ixora was a difficult task, but they managed to offer us a terribly serious album. Writing and instrumentation/orchestration are the main strengths of the album. On the other hand, I think it may be a little too long. There are also some inequalities here, sometimes the interpretation just ensures the minimum, and sometimes the instrumentation struggles to fill this sufficiency, I would have liked to have had better on this point. Fortunately, there are stronger moments that slightly erase these imperfections.

4.5 superb | markfromearly | October 25th 19 | I finally revisited this album last night and understood what I'd been missing since Valentine's Day. Looking at the progression of this album as deepening inside a dream state is so haunting and captivating. Waltz on Water becomes so much more ambiguous as you can't tell if he actually woke up or if he's still dreaming. Such a cool interpretation.

4.0 excellent | angrytortilla | June 4th 19 | this is eat sleep repeat's sleeker, sexier, sister album. it's not quite as endearing as the original, but still a treat.

3.5 great | TheSupernatural | April 26th 19 | Strange vocal effects, awkward transitions, always-stumbling drum beats, and a distracting hodgepodge of different instruments keep Blushing from ever feeling comfortable. It's powerful, memorable, but it's not exactly beautiful the way Copeland's other work is.

4.0 excellent | BlazinBlitzer | February 15th 19 | Can't really remember the last time I found a pop album this infectiously good. Well done, Sowing hype, you've pressed me this time.

4.5 superb | spanndrew58 | February 14th 19 | Totally blown away by how gorgeous this is. Only more listens will tell if my rating grows or shrinks, but a 4 seems appropriate at the moment.

4.5 superb | BrushedRed | December 19th 18 | Featuring 3 of their most beautiful tracks they?ve ever produced, this album is set to be a stunner. Color me anticipated! I love me some Copeland and I have waited for another album after the excellent Ixora in 2014. Upon listening: fantastic, as I figured. Colorless is abso-fuckin-lutely their masterpiece
