Recorded over a productive two-week period, Wait 'Til Night picks up where Playin Me tracks like "He Said I Said," "Come Into My Room," and its title track left off. The album's theme is evident through track titles like "Freak You," "Your Sex," and "So Deep," and Marissa Campbell's lyrics likewise leave little to the imagination. Whispered with limited range while coated in reverb, the London-based producer, writer, and vocalist switches between simplistic compliments and commands. Compared to Playin Me, the rhythms aren't as liquid, and they putter with greater frequency. "So Deep" at least has some snarl to it, and the title track hovers and dips with heavy bass, while the lowest point is "Want," where Campbell sounds like she's intoning off the cuff as she tests out a bare drum sound. The album effectively sets a mood but tends to lack the richness and labyrinthine quality of the previous album. It's too direct, skeletal, and mechanical to function as more than background listening.
