Playing with deep pulsating tones and an introverted personal focus, many have pointed out that this is his most personal album to date. The first track \u201cCan\u2019t Do Without You\u201d is a perfect song to get the album going &#8211; a distant muddied voice sings while the rhythm of the track gets moving slowly and finally plateaus into a gorgeous and heated pop tune. <i>O.L. <\/i>is full of hits and I\u2019m hard-pressed to pick favorites, but the title track, \u201cJulia Brightly\u201d and \u201cMars\u201d stand out for me. The album explores themes within the \u2018love-spectrum\u2019 \u2013 euphoria and jubilance, then deep contemplation, followed by overwhelming anxiety, finally coming to a newfound equilibrium of the aforementioned. This is an exciting progression in the discography of an artist that has consistently produced music that is celebrated and enjoyed by audiences far and wide. As a fan, I\u2019m thrilled.
