Billie Eilish - When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? (March 29, 2019) Album • Page 8

Yes, absolutely. It's startling to go from such a tongue in cheek track as wish you were gay immediately into something as beautiful and emotional as when the party's over.

 

the bass in xanny legitimately startled me the first time it kicked in.

 

The bass here is wild. The production in general is superb.

 

Billie is really just Lorde’s tethered doppelgänger

 

I genuinely don't see that, haha. I feel like they are doing very different things.

 

I genuinely don’t hear the Lorde comparisons. It’s just a very shallow “oh look they’re both young girls” thing

 

wow, I love how the bass in xanny modulates her voice. so fucking cool.

 

Really enjoying this on first listen.
The Threat Level Midnight samples in My Strange Addiction are absurd lol

 

you forgot being moody, duh

 

Billie Eilish performs “when the party’s over” on Ellen: Watch

Pretty cool seeing Dave Grohl in the crowd.

 

Nah, even outside their young age, they both occupy that same sad alt pop territory (which I personally love btw). Definitely not doppelgängers, but certainly similar enough to warrant comparisons.

I think Billie Eilish is more diverse and interesting in ways, but not everything hits. This album grows on me more and more though.

 

my strange addiction is good

 

I think there’s an argument to be made that this is similar to Lorde’s in the sense that it’s singular vision of the artist and their producer/co-writer. And their producer really knows their quirks and how to channel their personality and talents into a cohesive album. But you could say that for a number of artists right now like St. Vincent, Lana, Meg Myers, etc.

 

Wow, she killed this performance.

 

her voice sounds a lot like Lorde's imo

 

Listened the whole way through during gym today. Dig it

 

So yeah, after giving this a few more listens, my feelings haven't changed: it's a very good collection of songs that doesn't entirely work as one cohesive whole. That's not to take away from what Billie achieves here; the fact that this is her debut album at seventeen is monumental.

 

How fucking good is I love you

God damn

 

I hope someone's making sure she doesn't burn out or get overwhelmed with how much she's blowing up

 

that interview was recently parodied in some weird meme-inception shit, the internet is weird

 

From how her mom acts at the ends of these I'd like to think her family is what grounds her and she'll be okay

 

So decided to check this out just because I had no idea who she was.

It was ok. Nothing I can really see revisiting.

EDIT: Actually managed to revisit this.

 

This was an interesting interview.

 

Is this like horror-pop?

Gotta wait until morning to listen more I'm spooked.

 

I wanted to like this a lot, walked away LOVING the production but I feel like this record is just really monotonous. Like, kind of the same thing for 13 songs.
