Conscious (Guy Sebastian album)

Conscious is the eighth studio album from Australian singer-songwriter Guy Sebastian.

Hayden Benfield from Renowned for Sound praised "the funky guitars and R&B beats" of "High on Me" before saying "With Conscious, Sebastian has sought to move away from his tendency to do take after take in search of the perfect vocal delivery, instead seeking to make it feel “a bit more real”" adding "For an artist who has grown so steadily through his career, Conscious neither represents stagnation or a backward step for Sebastian, but nor does it represent progress.

[1] David from auspOp was complimentary saying it's "one of his best efforts in a long time, the album is a showcase of quality Australian music" praising "Set in Stone", "Vesuvius", "Chasing Lights" and "Sober" adding "Where Guy continues to shine though is on the big mid-tempo numbers.

From deep and booming verses to some pretty high-octave choruses Guy shows that he's not afraid to attack a song from different angles."

The sound of this album has also inspired me to explore different interpretations of previous songs, giving them a new life for 2017.
