  1. 9.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    Nash hasn't just tried to continue her legacy as one of the UK's most iconic, honest and innovative pop sensations… she has completely rewritten it

  2. 8.0 |   DIY

    ‘Yesterday Was Forever’ comes eleven years in for Kate, but it’s an album as courageous and fun as any debut

  3. 8.0 |   musicOMH

    It’s a pleasure to hear Nash back on form and really enjoying her music

  4. 7.5 |   The Line Of Best Fit

    At its best the record is a playful, pulse-raising thrill-ride; and you can see that musical dexterity on display here will be staggeringly impressive or bewilderingly inconsistent, depending on your taste

  5. 7.0 |   Exclaim

    "Drink About You" is an explosive, poppy single that puts Nash's wonderfully insistent vocals on display. She flirts with R&B on "Body Heat," a percussion-guided, hook-laden jam

  6. 7.0 |   All Music

    Listeners put off by Nash's cheekiness in the past may find her more relatable here, or at least more compelling, though Yesterday Was Forever still refuses to pander

  7. 6.6 |   Paste Magazine

    The strongest argument for Nash’s validity as a pop artist by far comes from “Drink About You,” which spins a lopped acoustic riff and a thin 808 beat into pop nirvana

  8. 6.0 |   The Arts Desk

    The singer's experiences acting in the US TV show GLOW have clearly given her a real love of US indie-gal music. She writes it pretty well. But the jury's out on whether she's always the best person to perform it

  9. 6.0 |   PopMatters

    An uneven, yet still enjoyable collection of tracks
    Read Review

  10. 6.0 |   NME

    The moments of saving grace in songs about anxiety, body-image and independence are somewhat lost in a 14-track endurance test of stylistic mess and spoon-fed lyricism

  11. 6.0 |   Q

    She's not going down without a fight. Print edition only

  12. 4.5 |   Under The Radar

    These pleasant tunes don't have enough sharp dynamics to give them an edge and so end up as mostly fluff without so much substance

  13. 4.0 |   The Independent

    Her sincere approach to themes such as mental health or self-image are welcome, but the sonic mess littered through Yesterday Was Forever piles up like an impenetrable wall
    Read Review

  14. 4.0 |   The Guardian

    Her lyrics seem to be either dictated by the rhyme scheme, like a 10-year-old’s poetry, or self-contradicting nonsense

  15. 4.0 |   Spectrum Culture

    A snapshot of an artist in crisis
