Apparently iii is coming tomorrow, iiii on Thursday and then a 'surprise' drop of v on Friday ohmy.gif
Has anyone released four albums in four days before?

On my first listen of ii and LUNA LLENA! heart.gif

I was gagged when I found out she’s releasing so many albums at once

So far kick ii doesn’t sound like her best work but I hope it will grow on me

The Arca week continues. Xenomorphgirl wub.gif

Cannot wait to hear all the 5 albums in order after they are out - that's going to be a wild experience

Lost Woman Found heart.gif stunning

Same, can’t wait to listen to them all back to back tomorrow.
I thought they could end up being quite samey but they all have their own distinct sound while all being very distinctly Arca

Really huge kudos to Arca for keeping her sound in these three albums! However, I do feel her KiCk i is a lot more polished while there are some great motifs in parts of the other 3 albums but never quite bring them together. Señorita is the best release here in my opinion and reminds me of her standout songs in KiCk i. I also think KicK iii is her best album of the three and can't wait to hear (kIcK?) v!

I’m so beyond impressed by how she managed to have a different sound and vibe in each of these. iiiii is definitely the most tame of the 5 but it might become my second favourite after iii very soon. Crown 😵☠️

So far here’s my ranking

iii
i
iiiii
iiii
ii

This is a LOT to take in during one week but I'm currently just feeling a bit astonished at the scale of it all. I'm not sure which is my fave but I'm liking each of them in a different way, iiiii sounded beautiful this morning.

I look forward to listening to all 4 of these back to back in like a month when I have caught up to this release week in my music listening laugh.gif

So far I have only heard 'Incendio' and 'Born Yesterday', and based on that I am definitely more excited for iii than ii. But no idea what to expect from the other two yet.

Agree there’s a lot to take in, it’s all so impressive.
I love her heart.gif

Can’t get over how perfect it is having Bruja as the opener and Joya as the closer on iii.
Joya gives me such Björk vibes, beautiful.

No idea how I’d rank them yet, but each one has so many highlights.
I’ve seen ii being a lot of people’s least favourite, but that Prada / Rakata / Tiro / Luna Llena run! 🤩

Hearing them all in a row improves the experience so much. And she actually said that we should listen to all albums in order as it was her intention.

So many songs are clicking now too. Tiro, Rubberneck, Queer, Boquifloja (i'm OBSESSED), Fireprayer.

A(rtist)OTY & A(lbum)OTY by far for me. Love her so much cry.gif

Wow the last few tracks of iiiii really put the album to top tier ohmy.gif Fireprayer is a huge standout and the previous tracks built onto Fireprayer really well too. Certainly the best of the 4 by far!

There’s a theory floating around on Reddit that i is a prelude/teaser for all the other albums with each song belonging to one of the 4. It makes so much sense as i is the least cohesive album

YES! Loooove that grungy production.

I think Joya might just be SOTY for me heart.gif
