I initially had this as an 85, but i deleted it because don't want to rate it just yet. it takes a while for all boc to settle in with me, and i don't want to reduce the feelings i have of this to a number just yet. I will say, Naraka is instantly one of their best, and You retreat in time and space has been close to making me cry today.
hope and rebirth the space adventure the party the album. that rivers cuomo song was was like melodically so generic chart pop music it caught me way off guard. i don't think its bad though, maybe a testament to how generic chart pop music could do with more omnichord twinkles. perhaps take care in your dreaming is the highlight for me, the divine chord too of course. weightless is a really good closer i don't really know whats going on with the track ratings.
didn't stick with me as just a song, but i heard it alongside the music video and i heard it as music on an instagram post and suddenly it brought it to life. definitely doesn't deserve all of these red scores, but i can't play the "you guys don't get satire" card because i don't understand what its supposed to be satirising either.
+ i understand what an incestuous friendship group is but "real incestuous vibes" is one hell of a lyric.
it's not one of my favourite charli projects but wow, its a great debut from a pop star. not the sound i expected given what the two songs i know from sucker sounds like. How Can I is underrated.
