album Caroline Polachek - 'Desire, I Want to Turn Into You'

[bestfiction]

After Billions and Island I kinda wanted something more esoteric/mystical but I still enjoy this a lot. Pretty In Possible, I Believe and Butterfly Net are the highlights out of the new songs. Kinda dissapointed with Smoke for now but maybe it will grow

[Dragonfly]

My only nitpick is that I want more bridges  

[SapphireSky]

I wish she saved billions for the album release... Literally the best song of all time

Fly To God

[Niemira]

God this is so good

I usually hate hearing a closer before release. It just kills the momentum of the album for me. Especially with such a major song like Billions, would have been great to be floored by that at the end.

I know it's a cover but Long Road Home would have been a perfect addition to this album

Only 6.5 more hours until I can listen

Crude Drawing is INSANE

[squishy]

I can't stand hopedrunk everasking because it sounds like the smoke alarm needs its battery changed 

[switcher89]

I wish Dido’s verse was longer, she sounds so good.

[Slayn]

WHO SAID SOMETHING BAD ABOUT I BELIEVE??

So true, low key can’t get over this

It’s not even a cover since she co-wrote the original song too

[Tyrion_LMG]

Great album. Obviously the singles are the strongest material here, but most new album tracks are sensational too.

 

Crude Drawing of an Angel, I Believe, Butterfly Net and Smoke are incredible. I will need more time with Fly To You (Dido will always sound like a goddess) and Pretty In Possible. Hopedrunk is beautiful but it’s too slow for this album I think.

[ImpassiveThomas]

I Believe's instrumental is incredible but the mixing is so weird to me, like it sounds muffled :(

The whole album is really good and cohesive, she can do no wrong

[Club classic]

so happy to see LRH love  it definitely deserved a place on this masterpiece

[wraith]

NME took The Guardian approach it seems https://www.nme.com/reviews/album/caroline-polachek-desire-i-want-to-turn-to-you-review-3397612

[On The Bound]

9/10 from the line of best fit

@BlackoutZone I know we basically have or know of all the songs that would’ve been on it, but was there ever a rough tracklist for the EP Caroline originally planned to put out? I’m just curious what the order looked like

Pretty sure it was posted somewhere here before.

 

Don't recall the order, but it was Bunny + Sunset + Billions + Island + Smoke + Dang if I remember correctly.

that NME review... anyway

[Ice Cream Skies]

It's seriously so odd when NME goes below 4-5 stars, especially for good music. So tasteless sometimes.
