I’d say more so the structure of Painted Shut than the energy but yeah, it feels like a blend of both for sure (as well as a progression in its own right).
I’m totally in love with this now. Need more time to be sure, but I think I’m beginning to think it’s their best/my favorite by them.
Their last album didn't stick with me, but dang this album is really good. Given it a couple spins and it only gets better.
What a perfect video for How Simple. I’m never going to be able to listen to that song without picturing Frances dancing along to it, which is a very good thing.
I think my favourite part of the album is the part in 'Prior Things' when Frances sings "nobody needs" like Joni Mitchell.
How can I explain it? Having been seen, what would that mean? I can’t explain it, having been seen! What would that mean?
The chorus of “What the Writer Meant” for me. “God is the one who changed” is such a powerful line and I adore the arpeggiated melody that comes in during the second half of the hook
Yeah same here, it’s just so much fun to sing along to. It’s been stuck in my head for days. Lotta moments like that on this album
