    fun guy

    Jack should change his name to f***ing idiot who ruins albums

    well it’s not really him we should put completely at blame because these female artists are asking for him

    The real issue is that he isn’t changing up sonic palettes too much for each individual artist

    I can appreciate Stoned within the album. still don't think i'd put it on randomly like i would with Liability

    i really wish it ended before the bridge. that first 3 minutes are good on its own.

    did this lady's music become like nails on a chalkboard to anyone else or just me

    I don't about nails on a chalkboard but I am not impressed with a lot of her vocal deliveries on this tape.

    Incredibly breathy and delivered in an annoying manner. No edge at all. I get that what shes going for, but its boring as s***.
    Specifically on the track Solar Power, I hate that song because of how she delivers her vocals on that track. "My boy behind me he's taking pictures" makes me f***ing cringe.

    Dont even get me started on the instrumentals (or lack thereof) on this tape. As a homie earlier said, cmon Jack throw us a bassline or something dude.

    Damn shame coming from Melodrama, a pop masterpiece IMO.

    See ya'll in 5 years. Sadge.

    crine i was right

    good review honestly

    It’s worth making art that promises a way out, art that can approach climate anxiety with clear eyes and purpose instead of dissonance and dread. But most of Solar Power doesn’t solicit strong emotion in either direction. Shouldn’t an album about climate grief and puppy grief and social grief by one of the best pop songwriters of her generation make you feel something? The music cycles through chipper acoustic chords, mournful six-string lines, and drummer Matt Chamberlain’s effortless shuffle, never locking into the bittersweet angst of Natalie Imbruglia, the cerebral intricacy of Jewel, the mutual conviction of a TLC ballad. It’s soft and loose and textureless.

    damn this really a dud y’all?

    It’s not a dud there’s great tracks

    It just isn’t of the level I expected from Lorde as an album especially after such a long wait

    "My boy behind me he's taking pictures" is also kinda funny when you realize the "boy" she's talking about is 41 years old

    True, I cant even be mad at him. This is the mf Lorde decided to make an ENTIRE album with, that's on her. Congrats jack for getting the bag I guess.

    Pretty much the only track I love is Mood Ring. Everything else is chill background music I guess
