I'm not a fan of Golden Hour.

I agree on Golden Hour but I’ve still given into the urge to play it like 10 times in the last month

is this bj burton?
― diamonddave85 (diamonddave85), Monday, 23 August 2021 20:15 (two years ago) link
love the dramatic latin guitar, and the way it evolves into that sweeping cinematic final minute.
it does feel a little bit like she's playing it vocally too straight during that intro, would prefer her to lean into the campiness.
― grove street (party) direction (voodoo chili), Monday, 23 August 2021 20:25 (two years ago) link
bj burton didn't produce this track, it was daniel tashian & ian fitchuk who produced all of golden hour & co-wrote half its tracks. burton has writing credits on a few tracks on the new album though apparently
― ufo, Tuesday, 24 August 2021 07:05 (two years ago) link
so is this going to be her divorce album
― alpine static, Tuesday, 24 August 2021 07:20 (two years ago) link
based on those song titles, it looks like it
plus the album title and title track, of course

Hot-take clickbait article pitch for whoever wants it: Kacey's album progression is broadly following Kanye's.

Someone who knows film help me with the influences here. The church and car scenes feel like Tarantino knock-offs, but much of the rest has some familiar vibes that I can't quite place.

Hmm, I dunno, seems pretty boilerplate longform music video kitsch to me.

lol the insert or something that comes with this would be a much much better cover than the actual one
― ufo, Wednesday, 25 August 2021 08:33 (two years ago) link
I had the same thought. The actual cover is truly terrible. Looks like the front of the vinyl is going to gatefold open though.
― Indexed, Wednesday, 25 August 2021 14:36 (two years ago) link
the golden hour cover is awful so maybe this is a good omen. i saw someone say this one looks like the cover of a slayter single
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 25 August 2021 14:57 (two years ago) link
if she's gonna embrace camp this time around, i don't think the cover is that bad
― grove street (party) direction (voodoo chili), Wednesday, 25 August 2021 15:26 (two years ago) link
i mean, it's not "good," but it's maybe fitting
wtf the golden hour cover is gorgeous
i like this too tho
― STOCK FIST-PUMPER BRAD (BradNelson), Wednesday, 25 August 2021 16:35 (two years ago) link
Yah golden hour cover is pretty generic, just reminds me of stuff like early 00s Michelle Branch covers. I like the new one tho.

my extremely positive feelings about the golden hour cover have only been magnified by looking at it during an acid trip
― STOCK FIST-PUMPER BRAD (BradNelson), Wednesday, 25 August 2021 19:10 (two years ago) link
haha well then thats that
― pure rim rest (Spottie), Wednesday, 25 August 2021 19:11 (two years ago) link
her first two albums had pretty striking covers, the golden hour one is just like a normal photo w/ plain font. her sister took the photo so i'm sure it had sentimental value to her. this one is more memorable if not exactly great. that target insert is >>>> i agree
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 25 August 2021 19:47 (two years ago) link
First two woulda been better without the type.
went to the country music hall o fame/museum in nashville a few weeks back and like the full first floor was dedicated to her. her exhibit is bigger than anyone elses there. i figured it was just put together for the album push but apparently its been there for two yearshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUz-iaBdcjI

Love Kacey, don't really want a "pop" Kacey (whatever that is), and kind of found that whole piece insufferable.

Hess's prose here is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of thing. I can see why someone like Josh hates it, but I think it's appropriate to its subject. When you're writing about someone who spends a lot of her time standing next to a neon cactus, some camp is to be expected.

I like it, I feel like it's a grower. Like I'll be happy for it to turn up in the middle of the album.
