What they're saying: DIY Mag’s Lisa Wright says of Eilish’s 2nd LP is “not just a triumph in progressing a signature sound into new territories, but a lesson in how to own your reality with confidence and class.“ Alexis Petridis at The Guardian calls Happier Than Ever a “compellingly bleak but empathetic picture of stardom”, praising the new superstar’s lyrical self reflection: “Writing about the pressure of fame in a way that elicits a response other than a yawn is an extremely tough trick to pull off, and Happier Than Ever does it with aplomb.” As for the sound, Craig Jenkins at Vulture writes: “Working closely again with her older brother, Finneas, Eilish branches out into a wider world of sounds but preserves her debut’s disarming quiet… Eilish’s deceptively muted vocals and unflinching, commanding presence make a tantalizing combo”
What we say: SHE DID IT AGAIN!!!!!!!!!! The run of Your Power, NDA, and Therefore I Am is an absolute triple threat. -K
