Oh Wonder – Oh Wonder
The opening third of Oh Wonder’s debut self-titled album kicks things off in fantastic fashion with some extremely catchy dreamy electronic pop songs, sadly though the magic falls away sharply from there.
Perhaps it was the unorthodox release method chosen by the duo, where they released each individual track month by month before unveiling the full record. After the first five tracks it seems they found a successful formula and tried hard to duplicate that, making the remainder of the album too blurred and simplistic. (JA)
