BRAT

Charli xcx (2024)

8.7/ 10

“BRAT is an album that I never at first had any intents on listening to due to it's popularity and my overall aversion to things that a popular (COUGH brat summer COUGH) but upon listening to the first 4 or so songs in this shockingly consistent album, I was hooked to the gritty, yet generally feel-good and summer-y (if you pardon the pun) vibe of this, and the rest of the album never really had moments that I felt dragged, each song feeling like it had its own personality and knows what it wants to be and where it wants to go, and that is very rare nowadays, especially in the pop industry. Top 3 Standouts: • Sympathy is a knife • Von dutch • B2b Worst Tracks (not necessarily terrible): • Talk talk • Apple I will definitely be needing a physical 12" vinyl copy of this lol”
