I put the debut in my top ten that year, but this thing is hooks hooks hooks; it's as if she used what she learned about space and cool sounds and came up with song after song instead of what were even at its best impressively ruminative tone poems.

she's also occupying fairly similar territory to king krule but i like what she's done with it much much more

wow i never would've thought this based on her prior work, guess i gotta listen to her new one

idk i would have said that about her earlier work too, there's fairly clear similarities in their sonic palettes, just the new one is a little gloomier which brings her a bit closer? her songs are still poppier & breezier than the sort of murk he prefers though by a fair way

on my first listen and i do hear where you're coming from, "l/r" seems like something he could've done, but he would've skipped the lovely falsetto chorus and those unexpected major chords that pop in

oooh
I was actively trying to decide if the album reminded me of PJ. I was leaning yes, so that's cool to hear

I like that energetic live version of Midnight Sun on Fallon better than anything I heard on my first listen to the album

great performance for sure, but the drummer looks so much like tim robinson that it nearly took me out of the whole thing haha

(the album)
must be hard to suddenly play a drummerless show (out sick apparently -- "we had to leave him behind... somewhere"), but last night was amazing. kinda emphasized how Yanya has the best guitar sound of anyone right now. it also made the "Rid of Me" cover feel more like a reimagining, just Jazzi Bobbi's foghorn blasts to signal the loud part.

fuck, she’s so great. Her guitar work sounds like the platonic ideal of what I wish I could play, perfect hybrid of rhythm and melody.
