Do I detect a whiff of Elliott Smith
Over the pong of a not very good song

It blows my mind how an album this passable has in its tracklist the greatest song of 2021. However bland and uninteresting the rest of the album is, Amoeba is undoubtedly the song of the year for now, it's bonkers beautiful.

Giving something this harmless and timid a 2 seems cruel, like squishing a baby ant. Hence the 2.5, which I will correlate with flicking it out the window.

I think I have the hot take of the year with this one?this sophomore project from Claire?s solo project Clairo, is a more centered, focused, realized, and executed record than the most recent St. Vincent project. On claire's mature ?Sling? we are taken through a wide range of folk and jazz genres, while always staying within the vocal style and flair that make all Claire?s projects so good. From the soft rock and jazz pop intro to the chamber folk and funk ?Amoeba?. This album is a huge nod to Claire?s biggest influence Joni Mitchell, and she celebrates that without going overboard like the St. Vincent project does. My only complaint is that ?Joanie? would have been a much stronger closer than ?Management?, but otherwise this is a near-flawless album.

I do not know how I feel about this. loved her debut and this is quite a sonic shift. Might be a grower, but can't tell even after 3 listens. Its not BAD, I just dont know if its good yet. We shall see
