You should do another Soen reaction. May I suggest 'Lascivious' from their 2019 album 'Lotus'. You can then see how much they have evolved from sounding like a 'Tool copy' band as so many used to think.

I’d give this about a 5.5 or 6. I had read somewhere that she likes having the multipart songs end somewhere different than they started, on here though I dont think they gel or flow as well as Happier Than Ever the song did, or when other artists do two part songs that are easier to do a edit from either part or trimmed down across the entire song from a pop perspective, but I can see how they’re enjoyed by the crowd that take this album as a more artistic project and appreciate the production a bit more IYKWIM. the way some people are hyping this up sets a bit of a high expectations that I was just a bit whelmed by on first listen. That being said there are a few more traditional and punchier/more catchy tracks here (Lunch and Birds Of A Feather in particular which I think are the standouts from that perspective and put the ‘HARD’ in the album hitting Hard and Soft, LOL in the way they both have a really catchier groove to them as a song compared to some of the other tracks that seem to meander a bit, or you can barely hear what Billie is singing about. On Birds she is really flexing the vocals apart from the usual whisper/mumble singing she does on a lot of tracks for instance. ChIhiro gets going but it takes a while to get there). Lunch gives a bit of Bad Guy kinda groove vibes. It also reminds me a little in some ways of like Madonna’s Ray Of Light album, which is highly critically acclaimed but also a trend I personally noticed in Madonna’s albums from RoL through to COADF was that most with some exceptions of Her singles I felt from them were the more radio friendly songs (although album version of Frozen is 6 minutes OTOH) compared to some more experimental or adventurous structure and sound/lyrical choices on many of the album tracks I thought, and on RoL where Madonna lyrically was a bit of producer William Orbit’s muse to his production, as you could say Billie is to Finneas with this, but thats a bit of a tangent. Back to the multipart songs, I thought some of them had some interesting ideas but it was a bit scattershot, The last autotuned part of Lamour De Ma Vie and the First part of Blue could’ve done being slightly longer than the minute or so they got perhaps to flesh out maybe someone can whip up an edit extended mix or something. TLDR if you’re looking for the punchy pop songs, grab Lunch and Birds off this into a mix is my tip, OTOH if you like being in the mood to explore an album project thematically as a whole with the production, lyrics etc (in which also she does cover a few similar topics as the previous album), chuck the whole thing on for a listen. Here is a bit of a ranking below:
