St Vincent plays with the limits of postmodernity. Drugs, sex, love, depression are themes that emerge in both lyrics and melody. The way it is composed is unique and ranges from repetitive phrases such as "Pills": "Pills to wake, pills to sleep / Pills, pills, pills every day of the week", in which the intention is to present this unhealthy postmodernity, to confessional tracks like "Smoking Section", which seeks the expression of no place "And sometimes I ... read more
This is the best album I've ever heard. It is lyrical, poetic and melodic. Life sprouts in every sound. Indescribable.
The Suburbs is a beautiful album, woven by the feeling of nostalgia. It's like coming home after a long time.
Lord takes on the voice here that portrays part of the restlessness of his generation. She is dancing in a ballad to lose her senses in the midst of every feeling, every anguish, every broken heart. Without a doubt, the best of all is the particular way in which Melodrama transits between being commercial and being authentic and still have incredibly good lyrics.
Between highs and lows, the best are "I Stay In Love", "Last Kiss" and "Thanx 4 Nothin'".
The album is constructed by making a perfect combination of sounds that stir sensations in the listener. It is accompanied by letters of prostest, social criticism, with reference to corruption, dishonesty, greed, the government itself, people who are unaware of this chaos, who are silent and come that are not reached, and also those alienated to that system . It's not the most lyrical thing we see in Pink Floyd, the lyrics are aggressive, but it all works to denounce a reality and say we ... read more
The album is impressive. It's a mix of pop, rap and pop rock. The lyrics seem to come from adolescent conflicts or teenagers entering adulthood, who face problems like love, anxiety / depression, the music industry, and the political system. It has, relatively good letters, without great pretensions. Sometimes they look like drafts of sleepless nights, but that does not mean they lose some preciousness, they are only more spontaneous. There are a few clichés, but in all, it's very ... read more
It is an album that evokes several ideas, but, in fact, does not conclude them. Missed focus. Sometimes it turns personal, others just business. It's about the dance floors, politics and also romance. It may even be that someone can merge all these themes, but there is a path of lyrics and melodies to be made. Witness only gets lost in contradictions, poorly written lyrics and generic melodies.
É um álbum que tem como tema predominante o amor. As letras, em sua maioria, são medíocres. Mariah parece gostar bastante de ostentar sua riqueza, embora tenha que se contradito numa outra faixa. Predomina o pop e o R&B. As faixas mais dançantes são as piores. Talvez seja algo pessoal, mas não gosto tanto quando ela canta muito alto. O álbum melhora muito do meio para o final. Achei pouco coeso. Não há elementos ... read more
It is an experimental album, which begins with more electronic elements and walks in a way that blends these elements with manual instruments. The lyrics speak about marginalized, fragmented, depressed subjects and victims of a capitalist system. The emotion is built in the chaos of sound detail, reaching an almost transcendental level. It is an album to observe the particularities of the structures of an underworld.
I feel like Taylor could be one of those American novelists, a bestseller. She writes well, although sometimes it sounds generic. The lyrics, several times, refer to scenes, as if they were soundtracks of a romantic movie. The album is a country-pop. The best songs are the ones that country dominates. Also, the album is very cohesive.
It's a medium album, but it's a good material if we consider it to be just the extension of another album. During the audition, I begged for something that differed from the tracks, which characterized them, but for the most part they seemed to always be the continuity of sounds and vocals typical of the singer.
Best: "Cry", "Higher" and "Fever".
Worst: "First Time" and "Body Language".
