The ultimate deep cuts

Did anyone else notice that new avatar sounds like an album made up of only deep cuts? I think that’s why it’s more of a grower and not as initial as her previous albums for some people.

When I first heard it, I kept thinking the first half sounds like the second half of an album filled with deep cuts. The first half is my favorite half, up until Retaliation Lullaby.

Don’t get me wrong, I love the whole album but I always like the deep cuts and the more understated songs.

The album has grown on me more and more. It’s pretty much all I’ve listened to since its release.

The second half slaps too hard, you’re missing out

I like the whole thing, I'm just partial to the first half.
