Her best album to date. The singles (especially AW), Fishtails, Peppers, Taco, Candy Necklace are all quintessential Lana and career highlights. Fishtail is the song that has that LDR “it factor” that we haven’t quite had since Cinnamon Girl and will be a fan fave. The run from Kintsugi to Grandfather is pure poetry in a way that is completely fresh for Lana. The FJM feature is a perfect duet. She really put everything in the record and it shows.
Bit of a slow burn, but perfect dream-pop and slow-core. Both singles and deep cuts are exceptionally strong. Wolf is one of the best songs of the year. Largest critique would be length.
Spitting 10/10 Lovebomb 10/10 Wolf 10/10 Fleez 10/10 Burning 10/10 Blacktop 10/10 Different Today 9/10
EDIT: After having more time with this album, I am increasing score from 90->100. This is my AOTY.
Love. No One Dies from Love, 2 Die 4. Grapefruit, Call on Me, Attention Whore and Pineapple Slice are some of the best pop songs to come out this year.
