Album Notes & Community Reviews
The Casady sisters' fourth studio LP integrates subtle electronica and sweeping operatic elements into their characteristically eccentric avant-folk sound. The record balances playful, childlike vocal melodies with abstract, surreal lyricism and pristine piano arrangements, marking a clear evolution towards a more polished and mature atmospheric direction.
