indie-only smoke colored vinyl version - On the follow-up to BRAT, the pop auteur pivots to a referential, proudly tossed-off rock sound that offers mystifying glances behind the curtain of stardom. It follows her soundtrack for Emerald Fennell’s Wuthering Heights and, more notably, BRAT, which became the kind of cultural phenomenon that some pop musicians would be tempted to try to outdo immediately. Charli has, wisely, throttled back for a fashionably short new album with a first-draft, “one for me” feeling that resembles the quasi-vérité style of how i’m feeling now. Music, Fashion, Film makes a few pointed rejoinders to BRAT style: Rather than club pop and wounded electronics, Charli and co-producers A.G. Cook and Finn Keane are making “rock music,” with guitars. The mood has shifted, themes of career insecurity and self-doubt replaced with creativity and gratitude for success.
