Structure is a 2021 studio album by American indie pop band Water from Your Eyes. The album has received positive reviews from critics.

Recording and release

Recording for this album was completed immediately before the COVID-19 pandemic and coincided with the two musicians from Water from Your Eyes ending a romantic relationship. The songs on the recording are arranged in a deliberate pattern, inspired by Scott Walker's Climate of Hunter.

Reception

In Paste, Max Freedman scored this album a 7.8 out of 10, stating that this release "finds the band in its catchiest state yet" and characterizing the work "as though Amos and Brown are saying that both sides of the coin have equal weight, that all the pieces of their increasingly complex and exciting puzzle are just as important as one another". Phillipe Roberts of Pitchfork Media rated this album an 8.0 out of 10, calling the music "cryptic indie pop that hits like a sugar rush" and praising the ability of the band to balance nonsense and sincerity.
