Rolling Stone UK praised its \u201cnew sound that\u2019s more confident than ever,\u201d while Mojo hailed it as \u201cWolf Alice\u2019s best yet.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The chart-topping release was marked by a week of standout moments: a sold-out intimate show at The Dublin Castle in Camden livestreamed globally via TikTok, a performance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! featuring lead single \u201cBloom Baby Bloom\u201d, and a visit to BBC Radio 1\u2019s Live Lounge where the band covered Olivia Dean\u2019s \u201cNice To Each Other\u201d.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wolf Alice now gear up for
