Album Review: Little Machines

It's been a while since Lights has released music but her most recent album, Little Machines, is her best yet in my opinion. I love all of the songs, which pretty is rare for me. She has kept up her innocent tones with a new maturity, which is appropriate as the album release followed her daughters birth in February of this year, giving her new responsabilities. Her husband is a singer in his own band (Blessthefall) which means the two often have to travel separately for long periods of time while they are on their respective tours which has also been mirrored in her songs. Also, they are actually all clean! ... except I still can't figure out how I feel about the content of Muscle Memory. Let's just avoid that one for now and say the rest are perfectly ok.

I feel like I want to put all of the songs on here because I love them so much but I'm going to try and pick my favorites (it's like trying to pick a favorite child!).

(I'm also realizing it's hard to find the individual tracks on YouTube. If you want to just listen to the whole album, here is the link --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idCJqXOB5N0)
