| 4.5 superb | Sowing STAFF | March 17th 23 |
Absolutely stunning. M83 hasn't sounded this good since 2011's Hurry Up, We're Dreaming, and this is arguably even lusher and more breathtaking. A true return to form and a certain contender for the best album in their discography.

M83's starry-eyed bombast has finally finished wearing off and I am left utterly unimpressed with the onslaught of over-produced synths masquerading as song-writing.

The long-standing French band seems to come back to what really made them blow up with progressive electronics dipped in that sweet synthpop style and post-rock guitar works. In many ways, because of this, it is a solid little record that will definitely put you into a vibe. However, the album is overly long and I do prefer the small bits of experimentation on tracks like ?Fantasy?, ?Kool Nut?, and even ?Oceans Niagara?. I see why the band on their last album turned more towards instrumental music, but they never really did it well. These tracks showcase a better representation of progressive electronic and Indietronica/post-rock that feels fresh. Hoping for the band to really branch into new heights after this record.
