Ha yeah, the spoken word part is very Numb. This is probably the best of the songs so far, but these are all leaving me cold. Her albums used to feel like such an event and I just don't feel hyped for this new one at all.

she really peaked with 'actor'. anything else i've heard hasn't hit nearly as hard. stunning record.

Genuine WOW tho at her not being familiar with Ackerman.

i don't love it but i think this is my favourite album of hers, it's pretty good. the verse about sophie's death feels awkward and in poor taste though and i see people are already upset about it

i have generally really dug clark's work all the way since actor, not listened to this album yet. pretty stoked
reading this thread i'm like "yes!" "no." "yes!" "no." "ew, man i hope not" "YES!"
ok all the neg shit is about muse tbh

I'm shocked how much I enjoyed this. The singles were not representative at all. Broken Man is still one of my least favourite songs she's done, but overall this is a step up from Daddy's Home despite some clunky lyrics.
