album (RE)listens #4 - crash - charli xcx

 

i know i was only really going to do new listens, and yes i have listened to this album before but i only properly GOT IT this month. WOW! this is a perfect pop album. its everything id want from a pop album. its so fun, so catchy, AMAZING production, doesn't take itself too seriously but does what it does with full sincerity. perhaps not as experimental as some of charli's other works but that really doesn't bother me, for some reason i just love the way this album sounds. her songwriting is incredible, the hooks are perfect. this album is just so FUN. not a dull moment on here. really can't wait for her new album this year... the synths are LUSCIOUS. its simple and to the point but sometimes i think that's a good thing! wow i love this record so much! perfect ! pop ! music ! not every album has to be insanely deep and experimental to do what it intends to do well and that's exactly the case with this album. it just finds a way to dig itself into your brain, every song is so catchy and charli's vocals are just unreal! some great features from Caroline Polachek and Rina Sawayama on New Shapes and Beg For You too, they bring their own style to the song and sort of make it their own without taking away from charli's style, how is that possible?! anyway yes i love this album

FAVOURITE SONG: (CAN'T CHOOSE) Lightning, Used to Know Me, Crash, Twice

RATING: 10/10
