St. Vincent - Daddy's Home (May 14, 2021) Album • Page 14

also you’re giving most of the stans too much credit if you think they read any part of the review outside of the score

 

Melon gave it a 9/10 lol

 

solid 5/10 record imo

 

still haven't listened to this maybe I'll try it today

 

Yeah between that and the previous 3 BNMs she’s received the fork clearly hates her lol

 

I’m honestly shocked STV has an army of stans.

 

That was my take. I read it and felt it was incomplete. Almost like someone realized there wasn’t something written on the album so it needed to be done.

 

This was good.

 

Down and Out Downtown is a cool song. the guitars sound really sick. my favorite of the four songs I've heard from this cycle so far

ehhhhh on the title track. interesting but not really my thing

Live in the Dream is too long and quite boring

this album is a lot more...languid than I expected.

Somebody Like Me is a very pretty song. it's almost out of place?

 

This could have been a really great EP:

Pay Your Way in Pain
Down and Out Downtown
Down
Somebody Like Me
...At The Holiday Party

these are actually really great songs, ones I definitely feel like I'll be returning to. the rest I'd be fine never hearing again

 

My Baby Wants a Baby has been on repeat for me. That Sheena Easton melody is an earworm.

 

Doubt it’ll ever become my favorite record of hers, but it’s a worthy addition to her catalog and gives us some flavors that she hasn’t. I’m a fan. The middle stretch through the end of this is really good

 

Took a little while for me to wrap my head around it, but I can finally say I like this. Like it a lot.

 

I'm surprised you guys aren't more positive on this, I'm really liking it a lot. I think I'm already more into it as a whole than I was Masseduction

 

this thing has been growing on me so much lately. the back half in particular is stunning

 

I agree...and these types of albums usually turn out to be the ones I enjoy the most and get the most relistens from me

 

Has she talked at all about the strong Indian music influence all over this? I'm curious if there's any personal connection to the music and artists she is taking influence from, or if it's just another case of a white artist appropriating another culture's music because it "sounds cool"

 

Fall tour just announced.

I'm absolutely shocked that she's doing the Hollywood Bowl. Wouldn't have thought she could come close to selling that out. And why no NYC date??

 

Of course she’s playing LA the one weekend I’m in New York

 

Got my tickets for Philly

 

Just announced a NYC show. Radio City on 10/12.

 

I love St Vincent, but this is a tour I'll be happy to skip. I'll catch her on the next album cycle
