Sep 3, 2020Plum is a great album, one that is professional without losing its beauty, ambitious within their discography and undoubtedly one of the year’s best.
-
Sep 3, 2020They seem to become more themselves with each album, and Plum finds them at their most immediate and compelling.
-
Sep 8, 2020From subtle synth stabs to soft rock explorations, Hamilton and Thomas open their songwriting possibilities by paying attention to nuance. It's in those shadings that their music takes shape: slowly but surely, and with unassuming confidence.

Sep 3, 2020Plum is a warm hug of a record. The kind you get from those types of friends you know you don’t need to keep in touch with all that regularly, but when you do it feels as though they’ve never been away and time goes all too quickly.

Sep 3, 2020Plum does little to rock an established boat. Going forward, consistency is the key Widowspeak must aim for, because if you took their top moments from across all five albums then you would have an absolute classic on your hands. Plum needed a larger smattering of their best capabilities to warrant repeated listens.
