Grasque is the third studio album by Copenhagen-based Danish chamber pop band Choir of Young Believers, released on February 19, 2016, on Ghostly International in the United States and on Tigerspring in Europe.
[2] Cody Ray Shafer of Under the Radar praised the album, stating, "Makrigiannis' contribution to pop music is certainly underappreciated, but creatively rivaled by artists like Brian Eno and Scott Walker.
Big, complicated ideas are understandably hard to execute, but Grasque is a serious exploration of the deepest reaches of pop music.
But it is the gracefulness of those explorations that rival even Rhine Gold, a feat that shouldn't even be possible, but Grasque pulls it off without missing a single note.
"[10] Brice Ezell of PopMatters was more critical of the album, stating, "Grasque‘s biggest missteps come when it fails to strike the balances that Makrigiannis has skillfully executed in the past: the wispy with the visceral, the esoteric and the catchy.
