Posted April 10Apr 10 With her latest album dropped at midnight this morning, Holly Humberstone has followed up her quite well promoted campaign of singles (well, each one of them got playlisted on R1).All of her singles really did it for me more than anything she’s done before, To Love Somebody in particular, so I’ve given the album a listen during the train journey I’m currently on, and it’s really good! It matches the vibe of the singles and her sound is very HAIM/Carly Rae Jepsen. I hope this album does something chartwise to make up for the singles somehow not doing a single thing.
April 11Apr 11 I think Holly has found her sound and style now. Think this is her best era by far. It is a shame the singles, especially To Love Somebody, haven’t been bigger.
April 11Apr 11 Just on my first listen - sounds very nice so far. "White Noise" is another great song.
April 11Apr 11 ‘Make It All Better’, ‘White Noise’ and ‘Beauty Pageant’ are the standouts from the new stuff. The three singles still sound great too - ‘Cruel World’ is very fun and ‘To Love Somebody’ sounds like a huge hit.

Monday at 15:151 day Solid album from start to finish, I enjoyed Blue Dream and White Noise the most but its a solid album and vision, I can see it growing on me too.
