samuel656 Posted April 26, 2023 Posted April 26, 2023 (edited) So excited, really shocked Only Love isn’t the lead though. Seems like the most hit friendly of the songs we’ve heard. But I’m excited to here these two in full, the vocoder effect on eat the acid is heavenly Edited April 26, 2023 by samuel656

Are we all STILL pretending that HR didn't have multiple BOPS in the album?? Sure it's overfilled by fillers but LORD Tonight, Raising Hell, High Road, and KINKY!! are those BOPSSSS Ok so 3 good songs out of 16. Thank you for clarifying why it’s her worst album

Crazy kid Posted April 26, 2023 Posted April 26, 2023 Yeah the pop songs on High Road were just not it. Highlights from the album continue to be Resentment, Shadow, Cowboy Blues and Father Daughter Dance.

CroNich Posted April 26, 2023 Posted April 26, 2023 Hate me Harder demo sounded really promising so I'm here for that. Also PSA to all the f words wanting new dance/club bangers this is not going to be for you. I think Kim's new songs could use the streams however..

collin Posted April 26, 2023 Posted April 26, 2023 OMG, it spells gear! Kesha is going to play new instruments on the album
cyclone Posted April 26, 2023 Posted April 26, 2023 (edited) High road is a ******* mess and it hurts me to see our fanbase pretending otherwise, lets just pray we get some listenable music this time (and i think we will!) Edited April 26, 2023 by cyclone
AlbertoBouvier Posted April 26, 2023 Posted April 26, 2023 I love High Road. Resentment is one of her best songs ever.
CroNich Posted April 26, 2023 Posted April 26, 2023 I can't even remember if I've asked this before but do we know if Fine Line/ETA are coming midnight EST or being released by time zone?

It has mixing issue but even then its easily her 2nd best album (only Warrior is better) and a lot more enjoyable than Rainbow Edited April 26, 2023 by Jooj

Who's pretending? Some people genuinely like it, it's not that deep
JoeAg Posted April 26, 2023 Posted April 26, 2023 (edited) High Road… I could do without the first two tracks and BFF, but the rest is solid. sure, it was somewhat of a step down from the excellent standards of Warrior and Rainbow, but it has some great tracks on it. every ballad on there is golden, and the title track is classic, irreverent Kesha. the way I see it, and this was corroborated by several reviewers, is it’s a very escapist record from a depressed soul who is going for the rafters, going for broke. Rainbow is uplifting and way more into pushing through trauma to a breakthrough, High Road is more trying to cling onto a remnant of happiness and spreading it out in a way. the sadness is very noticeable throughout High Road, even on the more upbeat tracks. it just feels less hopeful, less optimistic than the empowerment of Rainbow. and in being less hopeful, a lot of it feels less genuine. on High Road, she didn’t quite strike the magical balance of humor and striking beauty Rainbow so effortlessly possessed. but I like High Road for what it is. not every album has to be a Rainbow-level masterstroke. Potato Song has become a major discography highlight over time, and almost feels disturbing in its aggressive irreverence. that song sounds like she’s trying to make the best of a god-awful situation by escaping completely, possibly dissociating. I love the vibes of that song, honestly tragically relatable sometimes. Shadow is stunning, the strings in the outro feel victorious to me, the only occurrence of that emotion on the entire album. I think she has the potential to tap more into triumphant feelings in the future, since Rainbow was full of ‘em Edited April 26, 2023 by JoeAg

Also ppl coming for the gays who wanted electropop, isn't that what made everyone love Kesha?

I loved Animal like a friend, Warrior too, but I felt the quirkiness under the surface and I was happily surprised by tracks like While You Were Sleeping and Lucky leaking, proving her emotional intelligence. stuff like Mr. Watson and Red Lipstick confirmed her humor displayed on Stephen and Dinosaur, proving how genuine she’s always been! her voice is so versatile, I think she can create tender electropop moments just as easily as she can create no f*cks given power pop. I see beauty in so many of her styles, she makes so many things feel genuine

I’m definitely the latter.
