I’d have rather seen grainy videos shot on an iPhone of Chadwick sitting in a coffee shop than the videos I’ve seen for this. A make believe truck floating in the air? A star in a field? It’s nonsensical slop. I’ve seen the music praised time and time again. Not once have I actually seen the art celebrated by anyone but… you. It’s complete ass. Posts like that are what make me reluctant to even engage with the album. Quit pretending there’s zero middle ground between an expensive, full scale production and whatever the fuck this is. “If ethics matter, AI should be celebrated.” Be serious my man, good grief.

Okay, this album is really good. A bit samey throughout but the hooks are undeniable.

It’s completely different every time I order. Sometimes they’ll be in a cardboard mailer, sometimes a mailer inside a bigger box, sometimes loose inside a bigger box with no mailer, and sometimes they put it under a garbage truck and drive over it a few times.

I'm sure there are maybe technical things that could be improved, but I'm pretty convinced that album is exactly what it should be

This is the best her vocals have ever sounded. Powerful but clean. I think her comparison to Axl Rose is actually spot on.

Very in on this. First thing I thought of upon hearing this was MASSEDUCTION era St Vincent and that was not a direction I was expecting out of them at all

I wish I liked the vocals more on most tracks, but man these songs are so catchy.

Eh, not really feeling this one. Never been a fan of their synthy stuff. "Wandering" is cool though.

lol "djentrified" that's pretty good For once I agree with a Pitchfork review. I just do not get the hype around that band.
