Fifth Harmony er den kvindelige pendant til One Direction, omend den amerikanske pigekvintet ikke har opnået samme abnorme popularitet, men ellers er historien den samme: Som solister blev de hver især hurtigt sorteret fra i X-faktor 2012, men X-faktor godfather og dommer Simon Cowell fik den lyse idé at skabe et pigeband af dem. Så nu udkommer de på Cowells Syco-label, har optrådt til Disney Channels Award Show og er breaket blandt danske tweens og teenagere. "Reflection" udkom sidste år, og her følger det nye album, der ligesom debuten gør sig i dance, EDM og r&b med kyndig assistance fra tidens hotte producere som Kygo og Stargate, ikke mindst hittet "Work from home". Fifth Harmony kommer til Danmark 22. oktober.

"On their new album, Fifth Harmony are at their best when grappling with the age-old girl-group concern of how to reconcile independence with love".

"Ultimately, while 7/27 isn't quite as loose or as fun as one might hope, Fifth Harmony prove they can balance youthful swagger with grown-up sophistication".

"It's tough to remain progressive in mainstream pop; by nature, it's a genre made for widespread consumption, and risk-taking doesn't always pay. Perhaps these women will have more leeway to do so when they eventually divide and conquer (...). But as a probable swan song to Fifth Harmony the group, 7/27 feels quaint".
