In February, she said that it would deal with her divorce from fellow country singer Ruston Kelly and that it had a three-act narrative and was inspired by Shakespeare and a mushroom trip. In May, she was back to list off some of the album’s sonic reference points: Bill Withers, Daft Punk, Sade, the Eagles, Weezer. A couple weeks ago, she sang a bit of two songs on a podcast and over the weekend, on her 33rd birthday, she finally started to preview new music from it. Today, she’s officially announcing her new album, star-crossed. It will be out quite soon (9/10) and she’s introducing it with the title track, which opens the album and (as she sings) sets the scene: “Two lovers ripped right at the seams/ They woke up from the perfect dream/ And then the darkness came.” There’s rippling harp and a Latin-tinged guitar and it builds up into a pulsating dance-y breakdown.

听了好几遍才觉得这张专辑其实是一项不折不扣的story-based concept album,kacey以自己的divorce为基点,写了个倒叙的剧本。 同名曲风格特别,旋律平平,歌词宏微结合,铺垫伏笔,轻描淡写的几句“sign the paper”“took your things away”“give you back your name”像是...

『star-crossed』我认为这张专辑完成度很高,向听者讲述自己的离婚后的心境变化。 01/《star-crossed》 star-crossed lover 02/《good wife》 But without him This house just wouldn't be a home 不断说服自己“我想成为一个善解人意的贤妻,因为我知道他需要我”,而实际是...

3.5星,每次听Kacey Musgraves,就有种在听许美静唱英文的AI感,那种清冷和支离破碎是命里带的,所以即使这么怨妇的一个主题,也被她演绎得云淡风轻。songwriting的角度历史最差,要不试试回村?

3.5,婚姻劝返指南。Kacey Musgraves终于在听众面前坦诚了自己作品文学性大于音乐性的事实。和Golden Hour不变的依旧是超强的人物叙事能力和可以用作地道美语俚语教学素材的社会隐喻。相较而言大打折扣的就是本应流畅的songwriting被强烈的表达欲给束缚住了,“意难忘”式的长篇家庭剧编年史的专辑概念是很难维护住词曲的协同性的。英语本身是形合性语言,并不像中文那样充满叙事与意象。... 3.5,婚姻劝返指南。Kacey Musgraves终于在听众面前坦诚了自己作品文学性大于音乐性的事实。和Golden Hour不变的依旧是超强的人物叙事能力和可以用作地道美语俚语教学素材的社会隐喻。相较而言大打折扣的就是本应流畅的songwriting被强烈的表达欲给束缚住了,“意难忘”式的长篇家庭剧编年史的专辑概念是很难维护住词曲的协同性的。英语本身是形合性语言,并不像中文那样充满叙事与意象。所以除了cherry有上张的影子,simple times曲如其名之外,其他都只能说是寻求突破的探索之作。姑且把这张当作耐听型的Gap Album吧,选择欧美女版毛不易这条路还是得慎重… (展开)

确实要比之前的四张都弱了,尤其是相比上张格莱美大胜的神专,这张明显少了那种力度和让人耳边一亮的记忆点。但还在墓姐做了一张不难听甚至还挺舒服的也不知道应该归类为乡村还是流行的挺走自己心的唱片。经历了感情破裂后的女人可能真的有一般人不能理解的状态和心智。可能是墓姐的起点和既往成绩太好了,所以自然提高了人们对新作品的期待值,不是她的最后,但也比一般女歌手要好太多了。

感情本就是一地鸡毛,伤透了。想起MJ当年做thriller的时候觉得编曲糟透了,这张专辑如果保留歌词,把作曲和编曲都换了会不会好一点...不过同样作为创作者,我也挺感同身受这种内心一堆痛苦、需要创作但是“说不好”的处境
