Review by Tomasz W.★★★★½Sample

Took me three listens. By the third, “First We Take Manhattan” had moved in and started paying rent.

Review by Jules Archer★★★★Sample

There's a version of me before this album and one after, and the after one is insufferable about it.

Not every song lands, but when it does it LANDS. “First We Take Manhattan” is the keeper.

Respectfully: no. “First We Take Manhattan” is the only thing I'd revisit.

Too long by about four songs. Trim it down and we talk.
