    I’m happy to hear there’s an album for those of you who have waited :party: I might use this as an opportunity to finally dive into her discog, I only really know a handful of songs (You’re so Cool is my favorite).

    Do y’all recommend going chronologically or doing the essentials first then working backwards?

    i would honestly recommened going nbl->hsb->observatory mansions->ode to dawn weiner->flowers of flesh and blood->curdled milk. start with the more well produced stuff and then slowly get more and more lo-fi until she's just singing into her laptop mic

    super quick first impressions track by track (nobody asked for this)

      Hide contents

     

    mushroom punch: heard a million times before, i love it so much, should've been lead single (although it kinda served the purpose of a lead single in a way)

     

    am i still your baby: to be fair i've only listened to the record once but it didn't stick out to me, but i like it. it's cute.

     

    dance for love: my least favorite of the three original leads, but still very good. will prob grow on me in the context of the album

     

    girls: ohhhh. my. god. SO excellent. it serves such a unique purpose in the album and does it so well. i LOVE this song.

     

    golden: pop perfection, top 3 on the album probably. (just saying, that "can ya dig it" hook is one of the best hooks ive heard in a VERY long time)

     

    i don't know how to end: our first ballad. beautiful, but it's been out there for so long and i, much like others, prefer the demo. wish we would've gotten cherry heart or something instead...

     

    radio silence: what truly gave me FAITH in this album. some of her best writing yet, and the way she delivers those verses with that dry, sardonic quality in her voice is immaculate.

     

    bunny: oy. i just wish this did more. lyrically it's great, but i kept waiting for the song to explode like all the others, and i just couldn't really get into it.

     

    real life: AND WE'RE BACK. lyrics are very cryptic. but i like it a lot, and gives the record another boost.

     

    almost good: this one didn't do a ton for me, but it's still a good song at it's core, but probably not one i'll return to super often unless i'm listening front to back. could grow on me.

     

    last time: a beautiful penultimate track. that "you can't fuck the future if the future's fucking you" line punched me in the gut.

     

    sunday in heaven: her best song lyrically. period. a beautiful, serene moment closing one of the late contenders for aoty.

     

    OVERALL: sunday in heaven is a great album that i need a bit more time with to make my final decision on. i'm leaning towards an 8/10. the lack of press surrounding this album is really a shame- she deserves to be on end of year lists and get late night slots, but i unfortunately really think her taking her time on this album did more harm than good. but those who still remember her from way back when are in for a real treat.

     

     

    almost good quickly jumping to favorite track well

    i actually wound up liking the album quite a bit, but its underwhelming ESPECIALLY after Alias, it's like she chose to lean into Tasty (which is imo the weakest track on alias). It's disappointing, and I'm SURE pitchfork and other critics aren't gonna like the album, but it's by no means bad, and there are flashes of brilliance like Missin U, Shlut and Woe. But overall...meh.
