Free Love thrives on collaborative frisson – two people pushing one another into new territories with the shared assurance of knowing they're in good company, a sort of trust fall in reverse. Yes, these 10 songs are some of electro-pop duo Sylvan Esso's most direct. And most delicate. And most intricate. And most urgent. Free Love carries the confidence of two people delighted to be all those things, together, at once. Tantalizing opener "What If" is a brief, minimal and enticing track which finds Amelia Meath singing over spacious synth-bleeps, "Oh life, dying out/ And the oceans turn to clouds."
