Album Notes & Community Reviews

As her first solo album under her own name, 'Pang' establishes Caroline Polachek's avant-pop identity through a blend of surrealist electronic production and organic instrumentation, largely shaped by collaborator Danny L Harle. Polachek's distinctive, often operatic vocals articulate the album's core themes of love, heartache, and surrender with acrobatic precision across arrangements that are both experimental and immaculately crafted.
