What they're saying: In a four-star review at The Guardian, the record is praised for nailing the goldilocks zone of accessibility: All the Time is filled with tracks that get the delicate balance right between experimentation and a love of an uncomplicated pop tune.” This line from Jennifer Irving‘s review on Under The Radar also nicely captures the album’s essence: All the Time is the ultimate pop record for 2020. It’s laid back while also emotionally involved; it’s evocative and authentic while also questioning human nature.”

What we say: Perfect pop record. Cool grooves, bright synths, just a dash of cutting edge artiness, a balance of classic influences and new perspectives. All-in-all a hard record to wear out.
