After first listen this was great. I fully expect this to bump to a 4.5 on repeat listens. It's such an organic and easy album to sink into. It is a bit long, but I'm not sure what I'd cut because it's so consistently good. Only thing I miss from PfA is the greater sonic experimentation and songwriting dynamics; but this album seems to streamline that a bit and fuse it with more of FfV's intimacy. The genre variety is refreshing too, even if it sounds more imitative than innovative in that respect.

she's experimenting with sounds that, although not considered experimental in the grand scheme of music overall, is experimenting to her, because she herself has not done it before
queen of experimenting ๐

^ True enough.
After second listen I'm even more impressed by the diversity. Some parts sound like 90s alt. rock, ala Kim Deal/Pixies; others sound like they'd fit on Jagged Little Pill. If this was the 90s it probably wouldn't as feel as fresh, but in '25 I'm thinking I haven't heard stuff like Mirtazapine in 20+ years. I do not like the sequencing of the "official" album though. I feel like it doesn't hit its stride until Whim. I think the only track I really don't like is Discovery Channel. I had enough of that chorus back in '99 to last a lifetime.

glum might be my song of the year
|

Glum, Disappearing Man, Ego Death, Good Ol' Days are all so good. This whole release is top notch.

Finally got around to this, shes always been a solid songwriter but wtf where was she hiding these gems in her solo catalogue up until now? lol
|
| |
well Petals for Armor had as many gems as this one does
|
| |
nah

Album Rating: 4.5
Petals is good, but this is definitely the first time her solo work escaped Paramore's shadow in terms of popularity. This thing blew up.

Parachute is where itโs at man, one of her best songs ever
|

this rollout was doing a lot of work to maximise streams and keep people talking tbf. quality wise I don't see any big gap between this and PFA. actually Discovery Channel is way worse than anything on that album

Album Rating: 4.5
This is still better quality wise IMO but I completely agree that Discovery Channel ain't it. It's not even bad, just feels totally unnecessary to have a BHG cover when there's already more than an LP's worth of great tracks.

I really like this. Guess she put all of her bad writing into This Is Why and all her good into this one.

Album Rating: 4.5
This Is Why had a few great ones, particularly Crave and The News. But I agree with the overall sentiment that all the good melodies seemed to land here. And that's no complaint, Im glad we finally have the definitive Hayley album.

I wish I could see what you see in This Is Why, because I can't think of a single moment in that album I enjoyed. The lyrics in The News are so awful that I have a hard time even laughing at that track. The worst parts of Glum surpass the best parts of that whole album.

I like This Is Why a lot more than this lol
Itโs my favorite Paramore album tbh
