Album Notes & Community Reviews
Cloaking biting, cynical lyricism beneath lush piano lines and immaculate vocal harmonies, 'Choke' is a masterclass in musical irony. The record's sophisticated adult-pop arrangements sharply contrast with its darkly humorous observations on romance and domestic despair.
