Critic Reviews
Show All-
Earmilk
Human is heartfelt but not saccharine. The minimalist indie-pop is stunning in its construction and execution, and it sets the young musician up for a wonderful career.
-
The Guardian
Every song has a sliver of something sour hiding underneath the honey.
-
Diandra Reviews it All
The biggest asset to Dodie is that her voice sounds like a natural whistle in the wind. Her vocals are very serene and insular, which allows both her insecurities and dreams to feel relatable.
-
The Harlton Empire
Even during the moments where the music sounds clean and simple, there is more beneath the surface.
-
Immortal Reviews
Human sees dodie wear her heart on her sleeve without looking back, and even with a short EP manages to reveal a lot about herself. Even with the odds stacked against her, she did not steer away from being who she is, and that is artistry at its finest.
-
The Edge
The first single from dodie's third EP showcases the charm of her lyricism, accompanied by smooth, rich production and an eerie, captivating music video.
-
House in the Sand
To sum it up: The "Human" EP is handcrafted. You hear 100% dodie on every track. The amount of details in the instrumentals, the personal and colourful lyrics, the theatrical vibes are beyond her years and combine the classical elements with modern touches.

Whether it is a rant about her day, a little makeup tutorial or a deep meaningful chat about her depersonalisation, she continues to captivate her audience.

The Western Howl
Clark has managed to keep the simplicity in her music that attracted her fanbase in the beginning, but she has also incorporated a new complexity that keeps her EP fresh. RECOMMENDED

It’s a listenable EP, but if you’ve heard one dodie song, you’ve honestly heard them all.
-
The Hoya
Beautifully crafted and laced with fragility, “Human” displays dodie’s talent of communicating her emotions so transparently. She possesses a prodigious ability to weave tapestries of sound with only seven tracks.
-
Hysteria
Since her music career blew up a few years ago she’s always been an artist with clear creative drive and self-directed ambition, and nowhere is this clearer than on her latest EP Human.
-
In Key Magazine
Human’ is a delight. It’s quirky and calm, pushing the boundaries ever so slightly to prove that Dodie isn’t just a one trick pony.
-
The Odyssey
an insightful look into issues not commonly sung about. Whether my interpretations are accurate or not, this EP really makes you think in a way that not a lot of albums out there do, so I encourage everyone to give it a listen!

Will You Magazone
A great EP that shows Dodie just keeps improving

Seedling Magazine
Dodie’s songs seem to share the joys of life and the banalities of it all. She accurately demonstrates the balance that there is in the world.

Farmer's Harvest
Overall, “Human” earns 3 stars out of 5 for showcasing dodie’s growth as a musician and lyricist.
-
Freaky Party
These seven songs are all inoffensive playlist folk-pop, foregrounding personality over polish, but any sense of intrigue is confined to the lyrics.
-
The Pop Topic
odie puts forth music that is almost hypnotic – transcending the listener’s worrisome thoughts and leaving them with a sense of deeper connection with humanity.
-
Queens Radio
emphatic success for dodie, showcasing the most versatile of her musical talents on ‘Monster’, to complete vulnerability on ‘If I’m Being Honest’. Each song constitutes a different side to dodie’s personality, and without a doubt, this is her most authentic release to date.

Human is larger than life and nothing quite compares to the connection I feel with this record.
