    Amazing album, her best so far.. Right now my favourites are Forget, Solitaire and CPMD, but I love all of the songs on Froot. The lyrics are brilliant as well. This could even be the best album of 2015!

    Finally I could hear FROOT!! I was anxious since its leak. First of all, the voice of Marina is extremely beautiful on this album, it seems like an angel echoing tones from Heaven.

    "Froot" is a mature album, single, quiet, personal and heavenly. Marina worked in all compositions alone, coproducted with David Kosten and simply brought her best work in a matter of composition. The songs are complex, thoughtful and sometimes a kind of controversial.

    Certainly the peak of the album is "Happy", "Froot" and "I'm a Ruin" (which are the first three tracks), from "Blue" it will gradually losing its strength becoming a little tiring 'cause the instruments are somewhat similar and somewhat homogenics, but still remains great, pretty and so cozy. "Forget", "Can't Pin Me Down" and "Better Than That" are also appreciative and amazing! I really adore these!

    It's worth mentioning the splendid end with "Savages" and "Immortal", both are magnificent and extremely powerful musics, those that make the listener feel in a melodramatic paradise. Simply perfect!

    Anyway ... The album is great, impressive and very well done. It's not an album that deserves unless 80 or 8 notes! However,it has a much more personal sound and calm from Marina, remains a landmark work and close to be perfect. The best of her, no doubt.

    10/10 - "one of the most complex pop albums of recent years" - The Line of Best Fit

    Marina Diamandis is easily one of the most intelligent, creative popstars out there; she wrote every track on this album by herself and co-produced them all too, with David Kosten. Highlights for me are 'Blue', 'I'm a Ruin' and 'Can't Pin Me Down'.

    FROOT is a masterpiece!!! All songs are perfectly brilliant, but songs like "I'm A Ruin", "Can't Pin Me Down", "Blue" are really outstanding. This album deserves at least a GRAMMY nomination but I really hope that Marina Diamandis will win her first GRAMMY!

    It perfectly blends the best aspects of 'The Family Jewels' and 'Electra Heart'. It's alternative and quirky, but modern enough to be commercially accepted. Don't get me wrong, after a few plays, each track does tend to slide into the other, making it a little repetitive, but it's produced so consistently that this is understandable. A little more studio trickery wouldn't have gone amiss.It perfectly blends the best aspects of 'The Family Jewels' and 'Electra Heart'.

Now stripped away of any outer personas or societal pressures as greatly illustrated in her first two albums, Froot now reveals Marina's raw, stripped down vocal talent and introspective lyrical abilities that were once washed up by electropop sounds and a compelling need to comment on the different norms of society. Instead, with Froot, she takes her past and history of self-doubt and progresses with her latest record in the most mature and assertive way possible. Expand

Lyrically this album is about a break-up and her trying to find happiness afterwords.

    Songs in order from best to worst:

    1. Blue
    2. Can't Pin Me Down
    3. Happy.
    4. Forget
    5. Solitaire
    6. Savages
    7. Immortal
    8. Better than That
    9. Froot
    10 Weeds
    11. Gold
    12. I'm a Ruin

    The only song i find that isn't that good is I'm a Ruin which is probably the most "electra heart" song lyrically but it fails to make any impression.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. FROOT é mais uma das provas da constante evolução de Marina. Segundo ela não só como artista, mas também como pessoa.Reflete uma Marina pronta para ser colhida como diz a letra da faixa que dá nome ao trabalho. O álbum de indie pop, terceiro da carreira da cantora pode ser visto como uma intersecção entre o excêntrico The Family Jewels (sua estreia) e o pop irônico do Electra Heart. Nele tivemos queimadas as roupas e perucas dos arquétipos. Despida desses itens Marina resolveu criar algo singular.A começar pela divulgação: uma "froot" (que representaria um single) por mês até o lançamento do álbum em junho,mas devido a vazamentos ela resolveu adiantar o álbum e por isso muita gente acabou conferindo antes da data prevista.Mas agora com o lançamento o álbum já pode ser conferido em diversas plataformas.Tudo nele foi cuidadosamente lapidado, dos vocais que liricamente passeiam pelas belas letras aos instrumentais que as envolvem. A galesa escreveu as letras quando passou por um período mais recluso.Os temas variam, da solidão a terrível natureza humana repletas de verdades e críticas. Para conferir a sonoridade contou com a ajuda de um único produtor (David Kosten). Seu pedido? Que basicamente não houvesse tanta diferença entre a gravação de estúdio e a apresentação ao vivo.
    “Não é sobre ser pop ou não, eletrônico ou não, é mais sobre o sentimento do groove na música e sabendo que são músicos reais tocando.Eu acho que é algo que eu venho tentando traduzir por um longo tempo."
    Funcionou, entre "frootas" mais doces e outras mais ácidas cada uma traz uma energia diferente, algo que vicia e nos faz querer mais. Os instrumentos orgânicos dão detalhes a cada canção, resultando nessa viagem hipnótica aos sentimentos da "feirante".

    Marina slayed once again with her new album, that includes most of her best songs ever in her career. Unfortunately, it's not being an easy month to Charli XCX fans, that got their ass kicked by Queenrina again. F*** off, Charli, I don't want dandruff.

    The first four tracks on the album, "Happy," "Froot," "I'm a Ruin," "Blue," as well as the seventh track "Can't Pin Me Down" are the best songs of her career. That's all there is to say.

    I really really like this album. Marina has such an interesting and emotive voice, and her music is immediately accessible but still has its own distinct personality. Froot in particular has a darker and more mature sound than her previous albums. My personal favorites are Blue and I'm a Ruin, but most of the songs are pretty good.

Marina seems to feel more comfortable than ever on her new album, and you can really tell that. Her lyrical confidence is evident through the show-stopping Savages (her honest view of humanity), Weeds (an emotional, unique heartbreak song with a difference) and the captivating I'm A Ruin (which twists the heartbroken/heartbreaker to a whole new level). Topped off with sweeping ballads (Happy and Immortal - the opening and closing tracks) that are nothing but relatable, and a whole load of sass on Better Than That and Can't Pin Me Down. The title track is also a highlight, filled with so much juice as well as the the more commercial friendly track, Blue.

    I can't recommend this highly enough.

    People should listen to this because it has a variety on the lyric. Marina talks about human being, the false immortality we search, happiness. The album did well on the charts but no the singles.

Electra Heart was also very good. Marina has always been such a visual artist too. Especially the EH era was very good visually.

    When the first single dropped, FROOT, I was super stoked. It sounded like the two last albums combined. Although I thought the video was very weak I was sill excited to hear the rest. Some of the promo singles were rather good (I'm a Ruin, Immortal) some others were very weak, like Happy. Until today I don't understand why that song is the opening track/ on the record at all. Sounds like a demo to me and the lyrics are very lackluster.

    Some highlights of the album are Blue, one of my favorite popsongs of 2015, and Savages, very catchy and very Marine-like. Another miss is Weeds, it's a bit boring to me. Also Better Than That which is allegedly about Ellie Goulding feels a bit uninspired for someone who describes herself as a feminist and someone who hates to put woman against each other. (Can't Pin Me Down is a great feminist record btw)

    Anyway; It's a great album with great Marina songs and some rememberable pop moments; also some boring moments but don't we all have them?

    Marina Diamandis once again proves that she is one of the queens of British pop with her latest effort. The album is concise yet packed full of punch, with few of the tracks failing to earn their place. Highlights include "I'm A Ruin" "Can't Pin Me Down" and the title track "Froot"

    After closing the door on her Electra Heart era, Marina Diamandis knew she needed to reinvent her persona. Froot achieves just that, adeptly flirting with chart sugar on the title track and “Better Than That” but more often than not, digging her heels into raw, nail-biting reality.

    She is an artist who knows who she is, and Froot luxuriates in the confidence that we do, too, relaxing in the space and power that Diamandis has claimed.
