Anybody else really looking forward to this and/or going to see her when she goes out touring next month?

 

Got to say that I absolutely love “Like I Say (I Runaway)” and was absolutely obsessed with it earlier in the summer, I still can't get it out of my head - the lyrics really hit home as I feel like despite it being an upbeat BANGER deep down there's a sadness and vulnerability there that I really feel. The follow-up “Method Actor” is just as interesting and addictive, and climbs to No.5 for me this week on my personal chart/most listened chart. The title track kind of speaks to the themes behind the album itself about how we all play a part and 'present an acceptable version of our life to anyone watching'. There have been a few other singles released too (“Call It Love” and “Mutations”) which have all been highly enjoyable too and have all made me really hyped for the album. Her previous album PAINLESS was one of my favourites from 2022 and this feels like it may even eclipse that.

 

Previously “midnight sun” was my most played track of hers but I feel like that won't be there for much longer.

Immediately one of my favourite albums of the year. Loved all the pre-release tracks and the rest of the album is just as strong ❤️
Wish her and Suzi Waterman were doing better in the albums 🫤

Had it on repeat all day, getting quite emotional but I absolutely love it. There are some beautiful moments here (“Binding” ), but in particular I just love the guitar work and how it deviates without overpowering to complement her voice and the emotion she is portraying, totally perfect from start to finish - 'What you looking for? Shut up and raise your glass if you’re not sure.' Swoon *.*
Looking forward to listening to this at work this week!

Listened three times through this morning and this is really strong. Love the more tender moments that I wasn’t expecting and I agree with Dr B that the guitars/production are perfectly pitched to give a space to really connect with the lyrics and vocals

 

Ready for Sun is my initial favourite out of the ones I didn’t already know
