Unfortunately this project seems to have run dry at this point as even Poppy's surreal Youtube videos have begun to fall out of relevance. I can credit Am I A Girl? for having a huge production step-up from the low-budget cringe of certain Poppy.Computer numbers, but she remains just not a capable enough of a singer or writer to carry these tracks. The bizarre pop-metal direction of the final three songs is interesting if only because it shows her experimenting with tempo changes and non-conventional song structure, but it doesn't really come together in a satisfying way, particularly on "X" which squanders at least two good song ideas by cramming them into a sub-3 minute track.

I honestly think the music aspect of this project should have been shelved entirely - it's distracting from Poppy's most appealing characteristics and doesn't play to her strengths at all.

Realized today that the final three songs sound like the last Sleigh Bells record if Alexis Krauss was a shitty singer :(
