Okay I adore It Don't Mean A Thing too

Of what we hadn't heard yet, Really Real, Light Up, and Into The Sun were the standouts to me. But there are no bad songs tbh. All the singles sound great in context. I need a few more listens to digest it all, but I really like it! It feels like a callback to self-titled and Body Talk-era Robyn. My first impression is that it's colder and very sleek compared to Honey. Where Honey is kind of sprawling and trance-like in parts, these are the well-constructed, compact pop songs Robyn is known for. I'm not mad at it!

was never really familiar with the original, but this redux of 'blow my mind' is giving prince and masseduction-era st. vincent and tbh i adore !

i'm on my third proper listen and it's really starting to open up. this might be my favorite album of hers since be the cowboy. i think it's easy to initially write this off as TLIIASAW 2.0 (guilty) but to me it sounds more like she's combining her guitar-driven writing style from 2014-16 with more fleshed out orchestration. i love it! also, i take back what i said about 'charon's obol' - gorgeous all around, especially lyrically.

i do find myself wondering if she's got another 'be the cowboy' in her, sonically speaking. i've liked the last few albums but none really touch BTC in how brilliantly varied it is.

at the listening party it was impossible to tell just how intricate this is! on a first proper listen, the only place the album kind of slumps for me is 'charon's obol,' but i'm sure it'll grow. another gorgeous 30 min album from the queen of editing

went to a listening party today

the album is incredible. discography highlight for me. 'funny mouth' really got me though. she's truly never sounded like that and i'm so into it.

this is a sound i've been excited for her to explore more! so excited for the album.

mitski going full puberty 2 on this ****?? now that's what i call 2016! (complimentary)

i can't even imagine what 44 seconds will be cut... it's perfect as it is.

oh she definitely went for la yugular on la yugular.

oh reliquia is GORGEOUS

agreeeee the remix just elevates it

it IS brat 2. feels like the perfect companion piece and also has the pop 2 collaborative ethos.
