I'm not loving these either. Maybe I'm just not currently in the correct headspace for this style. They give me interlude vibes rather than fully fledged songs.
Mystic Warrior Posted April 2 Posted April 2 More club tracks, just as Charli promised. She really can make anything work, even b2b's repetitive first minute. 1
makeawish Posted April 2 Posted April 2 idk how many non-UK people can access this but she's presenting on BBC radio 1 tomorrow night from six https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001xk5y

Kintsugi said something similar about the album back in February in the Von dutch thread: On 2/27/2024 at 8:09 PM, Kintsugi said: if you didn't enjoy this song you won't enjoy the rest of the album, because while she's been teasing this as some eDgY album for the rave gays it actually couldn't be further from that near every song is 2 minutes, and compared to the raw indie inspired visuals the production actually sounds 10 times more minimalistic, polished and radio pandering than CRASH don't go into it expecting heavy club bangers because you'll be very disappointed when the album comes out and your faves from the snippets she's been previewing actually sound like 2013 pitch demos and needless to say, lyrically, the themes don't go beyond her delusions of grandeur / inflated ego and her one sided beefs with fellow pop girls- but I can't believe that anyone would expect depth from a Charli XCX song to begin with

Jennifer Lawrence Posted April 2 Posted April 2 1 hour ago, Scandalous said: yeah that last sentence kinda negates his opinion on the album tbh Well they obviously don't have to like it, but there is a similar underwhelming response to these tracks from people since the Boiler remixes/edits give off a much different energy/expectations to the studio versions

Heidi's Chair Posted April 2 Posted April 2 Club Classics is on par with Von Dutch and b2b gets better in the second half
xTurn Posted April 2 Posted April 2 Both songs are amazing, but this album is not going to be as sucessful as Crash. This songs are not for the gp, I mean I don't see any of these songs getting streams like Good Ones or Beg for you.

oshyms Posted April 2 Posted April 2 spring breakers is so reminiscent of her early work with sophie (tko, round n round, bounce) and her bratty n1a era. if it doesn't make the album then idk what to say club classics is good, but the "put your hands up and dance" part kinda rips the coolness away b2b is nice, von dutch is good but annoying asf

This songs are not for the gp, I mean I don't see any of these songs getting streams like Good Ones or Beg for you. i think it's even a little generous to call Crash "successful" … even in the UK the singles didn't chart all that high ….. i mean Charli is never going to be some huge global pop star the likes of Lady Gaga or even Dua. i don't necessarily think SHE wants that either , or really that she would be able to handle being more of a public figure than she already is given how sensitive she can be at times. there's nothing wrong with being a more niche artist and catering to your faithful audience … i love a Carly Rae Jepsen level artist that has shown capability of having big hits but prefers to stay the course and just make the music they wanna make and that their fans expect from them, having said all that … this era feels a lil anticlimactic for me bc im kinda not a fan of this new Charli online persona she's trying to put out there and … idk maybe this is wrong or morbid of me to say but i feel like after the death of SOPHIE , the gloss of hyperpop as a genre has kinda dulled for me. i liked a lot of Crash bc i appreciated that she was trying to branch out and make more contemporary pop music and id say she mostly succeeded at that, but as far as her doing an album that seems more "banger" forward …. Charli has much better bangers in her discography than what she's put forward from this project so far …. TO ME! 1

Crash was her "sell-out" era and she already said that wasn't her thing and that she doesn't even like some songs from the album. 6 hours ago, oshyms said: spring breakers is so reminiscent of her early work with sophie (tko, round n round, bounce) and her bratty n1a era. if it doesn't make the album then idk what to say From the moment she posted a snippet of the track on her personal account she said the song wasn't going to be in the album.

headztrong Posted April 3 Posted April 3 if she's doing radio 1 at 6pm tonight i would think that's when she'll release the songs
Delirious Posted April 3 Posted April 3 10 hours ago, fememeist said: Those were flops anyways They have 100m streams each. I wouldn't consider that a flop 1
Delirious Posted April 3 Posted April 3 Yea I feel like these 2 songs would've been so good if they weren't so repetitive. I understand the whole concept etc but she should've just released an alternative rave version of brat
