Where begin felt cheeky and slightly daring, Cosmic Wind feels hesitant and stuck as if Jillian Hervey and Lucas Goodman decided not to build any further upon their debut’s foundation. To be fair, this marks their first release as an independent act, having put out their debut on Interscope. Most importantly, “Got Body”, “Wonder Woman”, and “Jungle Lady” boasted personality, something their sophomore album sorely lacks. High-energy moments like “On the Rocks” and “Impossible” display Lion Babe at their best – on their toes – while “Hold On” and “Treat Me Like Fire” deliver the untamed side of sensuality. Listening to Cosmic Wind brought me to revisit begin, a record with a bit of filler surrounding some solid tracks. As it “blows” through dust clouds in the depths of space, a cosmic wind prevents a star from forming, a metaphor easily applied to Lion Babe’s second album of the same name.
