Taking cues from hip hop, alt-pop, emo and electro, 'Solutions' explores K. Flay’s recent swagger out of the grasp of darkness.
While Flay may have sweetened the music a bit, her lyrics are anything but sugarcoated.
Personable and colourful, Solutions is neither an escape from reality, or a shun of the fantastical. Instead, it’s a playful frolic into what makes us simply human.
It’s all enjoyable, but these Solutions don’t feel radical compared to recent, more adventurous records by kindred spirits such as Billie Eilish or Lorde. Nonetheless, it lends its own welcome light.
Still great!
I must agree with others that the production is less epic, but what she's made is still a strong album about moving forward.
Favorite Track: Ice Cream, not in california

es como un album de mgmt producido por jack antonoff pero aburrido y mediocre por momentos, pero divertido.
favs: I Like Myself (Most of the Time), Bad Vibes, Not In California
least fav: Only in the Dark
I tighter, more focused, and often better album than her debut.
It's a fun, poppy album with some sadder moments laced in.
It's a really solid album all around.
