NEW ALBUM: Tones & I "welcome to the madhouse"

[CRAZY-HORSE]

Deezer  listen:

Aussie songstress' debut album...
two years down the track after "the kids are coming" EP featuring the annoying mega hit Dance Monkey...
wasnt sure how she would go with a full length album so i was keen to listen...
her vocals are still nasal and gargly at times but there is more variation in them than previously heard...
as a comparison im thinking Sia and maybe Halsey...
the majority of the tracks have a modern electro-pop feel but a couple have a more retro pop sound, theres even a paino balled on board...
lyrically it is dark, lots of songs about being alone, depression, failed relationships, struggles with success/criticism, the groudnog day feel of continual covid lockdowns etc etc...
yet all the music has a light, bubbly happy feel to offset the sombre mood...
a surprisingly pleasant album IMO

love this one, but the WOKE nutcases will say it is "cultural appropriation" LOL

Funny how they got the label 'the woke generation' when in fact they are in a coma.

^It's a supreme irony that the two biggest online retailers in SA are "Loot" and "Takealot". I sometimes worry about words - speak them enough and look what happens!!

^^
seriously????

[Ruby]

^Yes. They've been going for ages and sure the name Loot was never intended to be anything other than tongue in cheek. As I said, quite ironic!!
