In a five-star review of ‘Ghosteen’, NME hailed the record as “the work of an artist attempting to make sense of loss.”
In a five star review, NME wrote: “The immersive atmosphere the album creates frequently crushes: where grief was perhaps more distant on ‘Skeleton Tree’, here it’s painfully magnified. We’re not so much observing grief from afar as being invited to starkly experience it side-by-side with someone experiencing the most painful hours of their lives. It’s often an overwhelming experience.”
