Halsey

I was intrigued by the prospect of it - NIN-produced pop - but aspects of the record came off as Downward Spiral cosplay, without pushing hard enough in any one direction, pop or abrasive textures

Turns out that Manic is a better record

Nevertheless, it's fun that Kevin Martin and Jack Dangers had elements on a Halsey record

i think this is her best record. i struggled to make it through her previous ones

i love this album it is awesome

I heard Honey played on pop radio at one point. I liked the fact that it didn't sound like anything else around it, more like something that would have been on KROQ in the 90s, something almost Cure-like about it, but I imagine that weighed against it getting playlisted like, say, Graveyard, which was played on infinite loop.
