In comparison to the dreamy haze of their previous work, Everything Is Forgotten is filled with tracks that have an uptempo, sassy groove that was absent from their debut. Lead single "Ubu" is symptomatic of this shift in pace and atmosphere, and it's also an example of how Webb's voice has grown in authority. Overall the record sounds more immediate and present than their previous collection. In spite of the increased tendency toward a more upbeat musicality, the themes presented here appear to be darker.

Methyl Ethel’s city of origin and taste for lightly trippy textures could have easily left them and their dreamy but diffident debut album ‘Oh Inhuman Spectacle’ in Tame Impala’s shadow forever. Their second, however, goes some way towards carving their own niche. Indie fixer James Ford is on production duties, giving a much-needed boost to the rhythmic drive of these songs. Everything Is Forgotten’ is at its best when it pairs that kind of darkly danceable purpose with Ethel’s strongest suit – their spookiness. The taut and sensual ‘L’Heure Des Sorcières’, for example, sets nagging, circling loops and low, fizzing and rumbling synths against Webb’s rich, androgynous vocal at its most gorgeous, I am an actor baby, fully formed, I can’t start again.
