Red face Halsey

New album is called If I Can't Have Love, I Want Power, which is apparently not cool with the forum software if I want to put it in the title of the thread

Pop record produced by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, who can say no to this, I ask you

You can hear the NIN on this one


I saw a review call this a "Smashing Pumpkins pastiche" and I don't disagree

I'm curious to hear this. Would you say it's a more intelligent album from her?

Considered answering you literally so as to infuriate you that I'd missed the pun

I'm just going to let it go, this time

So you're saying you'd rather be up above it than down in it?

Fuzzy guitars does not make it Pumpkins-esque. I don't know, the lyrics really dampen any enjoyment I might have had.

It’s not bad, I feel like Eulogy (RIP) would dig it.

I don't know, I feel like the melody of the verses especially is something I could imagine the Bollster coming up with

I am imagining that, when Billy first started using this line about having to write and produce the way "kids today" listen to music, or about coming up with a modern sound, he actually knew what he was doing and came up with a sound not unlike this

The end of the 2nd song sounds very NIN, Fragile era.
