"Whereas Superstar cast Rose as a boisterous and often unhinged popstar, The Art of Forgetting drops any hits of artifice or tongue-in-cheek satire, sketching a portrait of Rose at their most vulnerable and reflective. In turn, the manic and swaggering rock cuts that colored Superstar and their preceding record, LONER, give way to thoughtful and layered shades of art pop, fused with some soaring arena-worthy highlights".

"Stylistic shifts and personal reinvention have become par for the course for this New York singer-songwriter. But on their new album, they turn uncharacteristically self-reflective".

"The sense of fun that buoyed Loner and Superstar is muted on The Art of Forgetting, but the intelligence and songwriting chops are very much there, and this music brilliantly merges form and content, an exercise in pop music as therapy that's intensely personal and easily relatable. This album leaves the door open for all sorts of creative possibilities for Caroline Rose, and it's as challenging as it is rewarding".
