To me, this is a kind of refreshing jump back to some of the greats of old (think Zappa or In the Court of the Krimson King). Well said, this is true 1

I feel like it has that cute staying power vibe but won't be something that remains a classic and has great daily streams years down the line.
PopFan1996 Posted May 18 Posted May 18 Best album this year along with eternal sunshine My favs were Chihiro The greatest Birds of a feather Wildflower
My20sBlues Posted May 18 Posted May 18 It's also refreshing to know that Billie probably won't make an attempt to release remixes of LUNCH or anything similar, it seems like it's the only form of promotion nowadays. 3
Peak Now Posted May 18 Posted May 18 Whew Billie you've done it again A thoroughly enjoyable experience, Lunch is of course amazing but Birds of a Feather really SHOOK me to my core. 1
Gaia Posted May 18 Posted May 18 19 minutes ago, DeadInside said: Lunch is more radio friendly (though the lyrics may be a bit too much lol) than Chihiro. Chihiro is too long and doesn't have a clear radio edit like HTE did. The lyrics are too much. Should have just been a "fan fave" but not the lead single to get people into the album. On an album with some truly fantastic lyrics they choose the song about eating a girl out as the main single. It's just a waste imo. It gives Lost Cause energy. Those kinda lyrics are not what drew people into Billie in the first place. It's just not the way to sell the album
Bamboo Posted May 18 Posted May 18 (edited) Never ever thought she'd release a song that sounds like Birds of a Feather BoaF is definitely the other obvious single choice here for me - it just sounds classic Edited May 18 by Bamboo 1

NoOneDiesFromLove Posted May 18 Posted May 18 Bittersuite could've been so good if they had committed to one sound ugh

I mean whilst I do agree only because I want MORE ... of each sound to be an entire song. I hope she actually does have an act 2 that captilizes on those sounds. Don't know how it will work. But I'm sure her and Fineas can make it happen. 5

This was so intentional and it brings your for a ride on each track it happens, culminating in a rollercoaster of a journey from start to finish. 2
