"Sohn's sophomore record may as well be titled 2016: The Album, in that it balances global anxiety with everyday hopes and fears. Although two tracks overtly glance at European and American politics, respectively, the rest of the lyrical content delves into Sohn's personal trajectory; in the last two years he has fallen in love, married, and become a father. The two approaches perfectly sum up the state of 2016, highlighting that while the world may have taken a turn for the worst, our lives have mostly continued as usual, potentially even for the better".
