    Her albums would be better if she avoided fillers and "killed her darlings".

    I actually agree with Fantano's review of Blue Banisters

    this! like whatever happened to saying "meh not my cup of tea"? now it's like "if i don't like this that means there's something objectively wrong with it and no one else is allowed to like it either" like no there's no such thing as a right or wrong opinion in art and if we don't like things, we shouldn't even waste our time and mental energy on them.

    this album was released at the perfect time. even though i’m sad RCS never came out June 1st or July 4th i think it’s a very fall album as people have mentioned. i’ve listened in the car on full blast more times than i can count and can’t imagine a more picturesque scene than in the fall leaves. COCC was definitely a late summer / early fall album and i feel like it transitions into this perfectly. cant wait to play it in winter when it’s cold outside with a nice cup of hot chocolate or hot coffee 
    i miss the craziness of the pre release era though (even if i was just lurking) and the thrill of the chaos of this website when we found literally anything because it was so dry! cant wait for the next one but will enjoy this album until she releases her next magnum opus with mike dean, emile and zach

    I think BB is another fine addition to her discography. BBS and Dealer are my immediate favorites so far, but everything else is really enjoyable (as is usual for me). Anyways, BBS seems a brilliant companion song to Black Beauty, which is interesting, given the old leaked songs (which I'm highly in favor of) are kind of a positive "referendum" on Barrie. Don't think they'll be getting back together; however, that's no reason not to work together. I refuse to conceive of Dealer as anything other than a hilarious topic for a song (i.e., pop fiction, unless somebody has impressive receipts-- i.e., none of this ambiguous "it's my story" type statements). It's both Lynchian and Lizzyan at the same time. Her "screaming" is impressive AF and is similar, imo, to opera divas having a really bad day in some modern work (i.e., as a kind of singing/acting). 
     
    Another thing I like her doing is the greater compositional involvement in the production, as in the horn arrangements (and she's also credited with the arrangement of the Trio; so that wasn't just Mike Dean messing around). In the center of the CD booklet there's some music score, with some lyrics, which I can barely make out as from Arcadia. I can't read the music, but if it were for her horn arrangements for that song, she would seem to be making the point: "I did this". I would have rather seen the impressive horn outro for IYLDWM; however, that wouldn't have had lyrics to ID it (so I wouldn't have been able to guess what it meant). It makes me wonder whether all the horn-guitar noodling that ends the White Mustang video (which I've never seen a credit for) is hers too. 
     
    Finally, I'm totally compulsed to say: it's a harmonica, damn it! (that she makes her voice sound like on LL).

    No song here that couldn’t be fixed by the inclusion of Nikki Lane
