Also I think the slower songs are just as strong on this but the album is sorely missing a Georgia (maybe "Chinese Satellite" works?)

Finally got around to the new one, and I absolutely love the variety presented in the album! I agree with neek that it's missing something like a "Georgia," but tracks like "Savior Complex" and (possibly her best song) "I Know the End" more than make up for it

Gonna have to spin a few more times, but I could see it overtaking this one for me

Gotta say it's nice to hear Phoebe songs that haven't been overplayed in my super hip ad agency office via cool indie Spotify playlists. RIP my once undying love for Scott Street

Punisher is brilliant

What makes Punisher better than Strange imo is that the weaker cuts ("Garden Song", "Moon Song") are like wayyyy better than "Chelsea" or "Would You Rather"

Appreciating a lot of the subtler details on it after a second listen, like the harmonies on Chinese Satellite

Chinese Satellite rules yes



I think the closest thing to "I Know the End" thematically and structurally at least is "Future" by Paramore

You're right, every song on punisher is better than chelsea or would you rather. And those are still good songs! Moon Song is in the top 3 of the record for me though. Maybe the new one doesn't have a Georgia but Stranger doesn't have an I Know The End ...

After a third listen I’m actually liking the new one quite a bit and I’m kind of amazed by how good the lyrics are honestly

I agree with you there dust, "Georgia", "Kyoto", and "I Know the End" are my favorites from her

Moon Song is growing on me!

@Cole hell yes, her lyrics are amazing

Haven’t been so impressed by an album’s lyrics since Go Farther In Lightness by Gang of Youths probably

She just appeared in the cover of the Forty-Five magazine with an Iron Maiden long sleeve licking an ice cream and that's enough for me to 5 her new album.

"Would You Rather" is underrated, but yea "Chelsea" and "You Missed My Heart" are the weakest on here and Punisher is more consistent overall. Time will tell but I'm not sure it eclipses this.

You Missed My Heart will click with you one day and you'll regret ever dissing it like I do
