"The Attic" is one of her best songs, and I do really dig the rest of it, but that one is a WOW moment for me
man that breakdown in 'have you had enough?' is so fucking good. This album rules man. Also saw Stephen (formerly of Fever 333 and currently House of Protection) co-wrote most of the album. He and Fish did some awesome shit on this.
Going through my second listen and jesus this is such a blast. I often think I’m tired of the alt metal Octane core thing but no, it’s just that acts in that vein I stumble upon need to step up their game and come up with melodies and hooks as strong as this. There’s also enough stylistic variation that it doesn’t feel stale at any point. Love how 00s the poppier and rockier songs are by the way, reminding me of stuff like The Birthday Massacre and the likes. She’s so good at this dancey electro rock soundscape. The Center’s Falling Out… holy shit. Can already see this become my favorite project of hers.
I've basically had Push Go and Yesterday/Crystallized on consant repeat since Friday. The hooks on this are insane
“Push Go” got me up out of bed like an early 2000’s greyed out action movie of a guy who is gonna have the worst unexpected day of his life getting mistakenly caught up in something and shooting a car that explodes by the end of the day.

Got tickets for the MD show. So stoked to see her again. Last time I saw her was like a month before Covid lockdowns kicked in
Rolling solo to this, have spent the last 90 minutes trying to decide if I wanna do Toad's Place or Brooklyn Paramount.
