What a great album! She went in with the goth camp aesthetic and the musical references are definitely there. It's simultaneously dark, silly and catchy. My favourite album of hers.

It’s my least favorite track but still a no skip album for me.

Um Galina is actually insane!! It could easily be a mid-late 80s Stevie Nicks song. What a haunting anthem. :jonny5:  (lowkey I'm kinda mad I know it's about eczema cream)

 

She better have saved her coin for a music video director. These gaga youtube parody quality videos are not it, especially compared to the immaculate imagery for the album.

He better do a full review because it's great promo for Miss Allah X. Anything less than a 9 is a travesty. 

Completely obssessed with this record and I hope it ends up being her most successfull, especially considering she'll pocket all of it.

There have been so many albums inspired by the 80's and with that sound, but Allie blew them out of the water, and the fact that she produced it all herself :allears: I've been in awe with her talents since the beginning

The ending of Off with her t*ts is the highest point of the album, so euphoric

There is something captivating about this project, I feel like I don't fully love it, but I keep listening. I'm probably in this very slim minority who prefers more atmospheric version of Allie. I can't connect with Girl With No Face as much as I did with Cape God, nothing on this hits me anywhere as hard as Fresh Laundry, Milk or Regulars. But at the same time I always felt like CG had some generic unnecessary fodder as if she was still compromising between her vision and some outside expectations, it makes the album less realized that it could have been. So I was kind of hoping her next step would be just a full-fledged introspective record, especially with the pandemic enhancing people's vulnerability and Allie herself additionally dealing with a lot of pain from her illness. Something made peacefully on her own terms, maybe even all by herself in the comfort of her house. And it's funny, cause that's kind of what she did, except musically it went in a different direction :penguin: And it is very good, it's thought out, it's well produced (I do find some of the synth patterns to be a bit too in-your-face, but she definitely nailed the 80s pastiche a lot better than many other artists in past few years), but I can't feel it as much as I wish to.

 

Either way I'm happy for her and I'm proud of her, we need more female-produced/self-produced moments in pop. Excited where she goes next, I know she'll surprise us again in the future
