album Lykke Li - 'EYEYE'

[campelo]

I did learnt how to enjoy SSSS, it’s below Wounded Rhymes and I Never Learn but better than her debut

omg they all sound so good 

[shookspeare]

since the album is so short I haven't been listening to any of the singles or snippets  is she serving another INL? please say yes 

[beautiful player]

in love with all the snippets, especially you don't go away & over  

[stjosephprey4us]

not her pulling a Lana and lying saying she's going to retire  I actually hate her, if you're going to leave music at least release all your scraps 

[BlackJesus]

I'm so ******* excited for this. I know it's gonna be so good

so they hosted one in London, you had to pre save the album and then you get put in a draw or something.

 

album is incredible, i can potentially see it being my favourite of hers. there are no highs like there are in wounded rhymes and i never learn. but its so god damn cohesive and godly

ugh so excited

so happy for you, how was she irl?

she's going out with a bang, love to hear it .. still i doubt she really retires *fingers crossed*

 

my most fave is i never learn but ssss is closed second, never gave wounded rhymes much of a chance

Some reviews. Looks like this will be panned unfortunately. 

Still very excited tho.

You quickly notice that there is a lot of concept behind “EYEYE”. Maybe too much, because despite (or maybe because of?) all the effort, many songs only scratch the surface and even with nice melodies and beautiful arrangements, they can't convey the emotional depth that Lykke Li is aiming for.

However, at times on EYEYE the quiet spaces linger just a little bit too long, and it simply feels like something is missing. Ultimately, while there are a few moments that are undeniably hypnotic, the album as a whole feels just slightly less full in scope and vision than her previous bodies of work.

Everything sounds reduced, lo fi and a little trashy. As if the backing track was playing loudly in the background, and then her voice got even louder and appropriately effect-packed over it. In terms of songwriting and vibe, Lykke Li lands somewhere along the lines of Lana Del Rey's "Blue Banisters," except here the Banisters are tin cans - and there's quite a lot of reverb on everything.

thank you!! 
 

she was incredibly down to earth i’d say… my friend saw her as a little b*tchy but i thought she was just real, very level headed, a little shy & laid back. it felt like she was at a point in her life where she never knew herself so better. she definitely gives me pisces vibes for sure.

I listened to the lead ONCE and that was it. I can wait until Friday

 

 

Sidenote, I had a friend meet her after SSSS tour and she was b*tchy to them which kinda made me stan even more.
