Glass Minds (2026)

"Twelve long, patiently constructed tracks make "Glass Minds" Archive’s most mature and cohesive album in more than a decade. The strongest moments on "Glass Minds" appear when Archive fully commits to its trademark long-form songwriting. Vocally, the album relies on a balance that has long been part of Archive’s identity. L. Mottram brings an airy, almost weightless presence to several tracks, her voice blending seamlessly into the surrounding electronic textures. Rather than dominating the songs, she often functions as part of the overall sonic landscape, reinforcing the spacious mood that runs through much of the record. The album brings together the band’s defining elements—electronics, layered vocals and slow-burning compositions—in a particularly balanced way." (Sputnik Music; 4,5 uit 5 sterren)
