Angaleena Presley-Wrangled

B+

少了些灰败气质的蓝调和畅快的摇滚，多了些轻松的纳什维尔小曲，但总体仍然值得花时间。几首cut:影射他人也影射自己的dream don't come true贡献了全专金句——“I'd be like Elvis but with lipstick and boobs/My bra would be floatin' in a guitar-shaped pool/And I'd flip the bird to them whores in high school”告诉我们她还是这么mean；给专辑带来一丝流行熏风的high school实际上讲的却是未婚先孕和磕药的高中生，“high school is like walking on high wire”的比喻也因此有几丝让人不寒而栗，only blood同样延续了这种神经质的叙事，家庭妇女在“only blood can set you free”这种奇葩的祷词中枪杀传教士丈夫？？？说不清是讽刺信仰还是讽刺压垮人的家庭乃至社会了；而让人略有失望的country尽管用力过猛，形式上仍然是对如今乡村界的男权们一记响亮的耳光。
