Kacey Musgraves - Deeper Well (March 15, 2024) Album • Page 13

I found this to be a very... nice listen. The kind of album that glides along and is pretty, but doesn't really do a ton. Not sure how much I'll want to come back to it, but it's nice. The music and visual vibes absolutely match

 

Yeah, it’s pleasant. Should be a nice go to for upcoming spring and summer afternoons. I really liked Giver/Taker and I really did not like Anime Eyes

 

This is very good. Loving sway

 

albums so sick

 

man i just really dont think i like cardinal as the opener. deeper well would have been such a better way to kick this thing off

 

Anime Eyes caught me off guard.

 

Sway is beautiful

 

Also loving Sway. Listened to it first based on all the posts here and wasn’t let down.

I like it so far, the songs are obviously more stripped down on the whole, more country & folk leaning, but still with enough hooks to draw you in with few listens.

Definitely seems like a stripped back follow-up to the last album. Not sure it’ll elevate her any further though (not that it matters really, she’s still massive).

 

This is so enjoyable. The run of Heart Of The Woods-Jade Green-The Architect is the immediate highlight for me

 

Golden hour -> star crossed -> deeper well

love during sunset -> drunken breakup at 3am -> morning after with a cup of coffee

these work really well as a trilogy

 

gonna give it a listen

 

So far love how this leans folk more than country for the most part.

 

Same, there’s a lot of classic song structure throughout the album but she elevates it. Really happy with my first listen and glad I grabbed this on vinyl.

 

Alright even though this is only 42 minutes I keep checking to see how many songs I have left. Seems like something this scaled back would've benefited from only being 32-37 minutes long, but she's never been great at leaving songs on the cutting floor for the sake of a well flowing album.

EDIT: Anime Eyes was a miss, although unique, so I guess I can't knock it too much. Closer is great so far.

 

1. Golden Hour
2. Same Trailer Different Park
3. Star-Crossed
4. Pageant Material
5. A Very Kacey Christmas

 

Sway is the first track I'm digging

 

wait why don't people like anime eyes? it's great!

 

Really loved the chances she took musically on Golden Hour and Star Crossed…this just sounds like a safe folk-record. I’d you’re into that genre you’ll prob enjoy it, unfortunately it’s not my thing.

Don’t think I’m gonna pay $200 for an arena show if the setlist is 75% this record. Hopefully she’ll pop up on some festival dates next year.

 

The motion on her hair on the Spotify canvas should be a crime.

 

Does it look like the Apple Music artwork where teh flower waves in the wind?

 

friggin AI

 

Yeah, the flower waves as well but her hair is also moving in a super unnatural way.

 

That's my biggest complaint about all of these animations - they're so obviously AI generated so the motions are always awkward.

 

This Atmos mix is delightful, though. One of the best I've heard.
