I also got "Easy" vibes and I think you nailed why. Also, what a gorgeous video "Easy" was tho.

Ok they're definitely back back with fire. With this killer video, it's such a natural synthesis of their classic sound/image and modern pop sensibilities. The songwriting is so confident, in the best way.

This is so rich! It will take a moment for some, but it's stellar and kind of an ironic flex that I hope ends up smashing for her with the mainstream crowd somehow.

Yessss, this is what I was hoping for from this one.

This is perfect, tbh. She's on another level, and is a valedictorian among studied pop girls who just understand the assignment every time. I think my favorite aspects of the album recall late '90s/early '00s electronica in unexpected ways. There's some William Orbit energy at multiple points here, and that's a massive compliment. At different points, I got some of my favorite flavors of Madonna. Bedtime Stories was a surprise, but then other moments felt like ROL and Music (all complimentary). Not surprised to see Pontus Winnberg's name on multiple favorites. Also, at other times, it's the kind of music I wish Aly and AJ would make now. Just saying. It's so adventurous, but so cohesive, too. This is one of my favorites this year already, and may become my favorite album of hers altogether.

This album is a production and alt-pop masterpiece. There's so much to take in on so many levels. She put her whole ass into this one. 😍

And I said what I said.

Imo this is another single choice that, down the road, many people (ie, ATRL impulsive first responders) will appreciate more. It's intentional, confident, and the video is a spectacle in so many iconic pop ways.

Love all of what she did on the extra tracks. This is truly her best project.

Goddamn, "Spilt Milk" is all-timer Kate. Excellent stuff!

The hyperbolics never fail here.

Oooh I'm ready for this. Her new stuff has been excellent.

This! I really enjoy STB and I imagine it has its comfy place on the album. I'm expecting this one to be the one most upbeat-Troye fans are waiting for though.

It slapped live and slaps now.

I've spent some time with this + the bonus tracks woven in, and I'm enjoying it much more than I did initially. The only track I outright can't get into is "I'm the Man". It feels like such a b-side.
