Posted February 27, 20241 yr The album looks like it's titled '360_brat' and will be out some time in the Summer! This link on her shop confirms this: https://charli-xcx-merch.myshopify.com/prod...rat-standard-lp
February 27, 20241 yr I believe it's just a placeholder title, that's what the fans are saying anyway haha. 360_brat is the name of her private Instagram + mailing list, and this vinyl is supposed to be "exclusive" to them.

April 3, 20241 yr Arena tour announced! I was not sure if i'd be going but SHYGIRL is supporting her and so that's sealed it - I have to be there. Pre-order the album for early access~
June 6, 20241 yr Talk talk was Hottest Record on Radio 1 earlier and will also be the playlist focus track on streaming platforms from tomorrow
June 7, 20241 yr Talk Talk :wub: SO hyped to hear the album, reviews are very strong. I read it has started with the highest metacritic score for a 2024 album so far??
June 7, 20241 yr I've listened. And I'm not exaggerating.. one of the most exciting and exhilarating first listen throughs of an album in forever. Wow. It has to be listened through from start to end, the songs flow seamlessly both sonically and lyrically. One particular run is 'I might say something stupid' > 'Talk talk' > 'Von dutch'. It's such a clever brilliant trio! My early favourite on one listen through is 'Everything is romantic' but that may be a divisive choice?? Also 'Rewind' really hit me in the feels. Listen to the album people, believe the hype!
June 7, 20241 yr Well, she delivered. Another AOTY contender? This is probably her most realised work and absolutely her best writing.
June 7, 20241 yr She’s really found the right balance now between all-out pop and the more experimental style she’s been doing for years. Such a well crafted album and a highlight in an already consistently great discography. Love how she’s in such a lane of her own. So I is devastatingly beautiful 😭💚
June 7, 20241 yr Well, she delivered. Another AOTY contender? If you are talking about Grammy, this is way too pop and noisy for them.
June 7, 20241 yr My highlight of the album is when she uses the word 'coquettish' Whenever someone asks me to "describe yourself in one word", that's my word!
June 7, 20241 yr If you are talking about Grammy, this is way too pop and noisy for them. I meant for myself and a more general aggregate. Grammys are too basic to get it.
June 7, 20241 yr So good! Probably the most consistent album of the year for me so far - nothing really feels like I'll end up leaving it behind. The singles are the best tbh but I love Talk talk, Girl so confusing and Mean girls too! Overall feels a lot more introspective than we usually get from Charli (in line with a couple of songs from self-titled and HIFN).
June 7, 20241 yr Just gave this a listen. I was glad when it ended, way too repetitive and noisy for me! I want proper melodies from her.
June 7, 20241 yr 'Talk Talk' is a banger and three quarters! Also for the first part of '365' I was like "this is just '360' with different words"... then what happened next hit me round the chops! (Kind of wanted the whole album to sound like that really)
June 8, 20241 yr Day 1 on Spotify: 25. 360 126. Von Dutch 138. Talk Talk 159. Sympathy is a Knife Had such an emotional moment with 'So I' in my last listen through. It's such a beautiful tribute and love-letter to SOPHIE :cry:
June 8, 20241 yr Enjoying this so far (just finished second listen through)… Singles aside, I think the best tracks (Girl, so confusing, and B2b are my favourite album tracks) are all in the second half.
