Apparently all the best people are crazy, particularly in this day and age, though that's not to say there were cool folks in the past who could be labelled insane in a heartbeat. Based in Queens, New York, American singer-songwriter Melanie Martinez showcases a lot in the way of promise regarding the gal's full-length debut. Entitled Crybaby, this is a concept offering that essentially exists to subvert innocence, discuss about one's messed up and vulnerable half, and it's in a few ways about Martinez herself when she was oh so younger than she is now; only there was no kidnapping involved or dispatching said kidnapper irl. Crybaby is comprised of fairly well-produced, foreboding electropop material which intentionally puts on a childish front to fuck with those commoners. It's not flawless and the overall aesthetic is admittedly off-putting, though Melanie Martinez still managed to make a fine as all get out first impression with her freshman studio album. Angel recommends: "Dollhouse," "Carousel," "Soap," "Pity Party," and "Pacify Her".

Pretty decent pop album. The first two tracks are great, having the creepy aesthetic I hoped was constant throughout. Unfortunately, a good chunk of this album feels too generic, not quite going all the way. Also, I understand the childish imagery is used as a juxtaposition to the adult themes but the poor writing on certain tracks can really create an uncomfortable vibe.

This starry-eyed, pseudo-goth, lifeless carnival infused pop is exactly MY SHIT. I'm dead serious.
