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

[modern thing]

I still love the album, but it’s not an all-killer type of album I was expecting  Hopedrunk bores me to death every time… the singles (+ I Believe) are clearly the strongest tracks 

 

re: the vinyl delay - I can’t even pretend to be shocked, nobody should be  and I wouldn’t be surprised it’s going to be out in mid- late September even, the site I ordered from stated “we cannot provide the exact date, but it’ll be this year” lmao

do we know if the CD is delayed as well or just the vinyl?

I think all formats are delayed not just vinyl as that is what I saw when looking online.

I’m still blown away by this album. It may still be too early to say, but it is my favorite album of all time  This is a true artpop masterpiece. Next level vocals and production

i haven't checked for her in a minute because she's been getting lost in my sea of pop girls but was this album everything y'all are making it out to be because i don't want to be disappointed

Crude Drawing of an Angel is just godly art pop, I cannot get over that song

One of the best songs I ever heard in my entire life. 

 

I bet Björk loves it.

I think if you combined half of Pang and half of this, you'd have the best album ever.  My problem with Desire is that some of the more traditional pop songs sound like they don't belong on the album.  They're great in their own right, but it always feels jarring for me when you put Hopedrunk Everlasting and I Believe on the same album.

Same thing happened with my vinyl and it will probably get delayed for a year or more like another album I ordered.

AOTY btw

Seeing her tonight!  
 

(praying Hopedrunk Everlasting gets cut from the set list by an act of god )

[Right Now]

So excited to see her tonight

[madonnas]

Seeing her too, get there early to see legend Sudan Archives y’all!

[Right Now]

Sound check was soooo good (but so short 🪦, kind of a rip off tbh)

[IBeMe]

Her vocal delivery throughout this record is highly influenced by Indian traditional singing styles I noticed. It's very pleasant to the ear tbh

[madonnas]

Amazing show tonight but there were so many messy gays in the aisle constantly being herded back by the security so it was sometimes hard at points to see her

 

She did improve tenfold from her last show at the Greek.  Especially vocally. 

[James_Dean]

 

OMFG 

 

[Gavin.]

When Charli came out it took me a good 10 seconds to realize who it was cause I couldn’t hear **** of what Caroline was saying

 

I’ll never be a stan of Caroline’s but I like enough of her music…but this hoe put on a show. The production, the vocals, the guests. We have no choice but to give her her flowers
