This album and cover evoke such late 90's vibes. Pretty In Possible is like a 2023 version of a 1999 pop radio earworm. I'm obsessed with it.

 

Some wonderful tracks on here. I Believe and Blood and Butter are two other highlights.

 

Billions too, damn.

Makes sense! Very captivating 

And I guess the ants represent mortality and destruction (like Dali’s) - another side of desire and being hypnotized by someone/something 

i would say that they represent “the island”

like the Volcano represents Smoke and the “drawing” the crude drawing etc. also they are in the video for Billions if i’m not mistaken. 

 

it could also be about this feeling that when you meet “desire” you escape the current setting you are in and are being transported into another fanstasy-land (where basically the whole album takes place)

All the songs released before the album came out >>> the rest (except for the dido and Grimes song. That's great)

Yeah kinda feel the same way. The rest of the songs are mostly good, but wow. Who in their right mind would have thought to release ALL the best tracks prior to the album release.

Exactly! The whole album captures this 1999-2002 energy.

Crude makes me thing of ethereal Hikki songs tbh ♥ 

You are right about the ethereal feeling of many Hikki's songs like Boukyaku :jonny5:

 

They should work with Danny Hale too it would be a total collapse

The sheer range of Polachek’s songcraft makes you realise you are in the presence of a commanding talent. She has drawn comparison with Kate Bush and Bjork, not because she sounds like them, but because she has a similar blend of extraordinary vocal ability, florid imagination, and genre-bending boldness.

 

- The Telegraph: 5/5

 

OK :jonny2:

Well she already worked with AG Cook, I think she is very close to maybe work with Danny L Harle

 

Let's pray
