JOHN T KUNZ Marks 50 Years of Selling Records In Austin with a Waterloo Records Fourteen Day Celebration The album is interesting — good samples and their combination, the chorus from the multiplied vocals of Lorde sounds interesting. In my opinion, the album is more than pop. I won't say anything about the lyrics of the album — I don't listen to it — for me, the main thing is the voice that Lorde has is good beyond his years. supercut on vinyl is 10 times better. the only bad thing i can say about this is i’m sad i couldn’t get my hands on the blue vinyl. it fits the album much better, but i’ve been searching for a long time now and gave up. A combination of beautiful blends of pure art and is soooooo nostalgic. Truly, one of the best albums out there. JeffryBobbingson go to album

great vinyl! honestly i was pleasantly surprised by the quality of it, no more than little to surface noise in some places (side b more than side a). But when it is gone, the rest need not pale by comparison. The same could be said for one’s teenage years, which the 20-year-old Ella Yelich-O’Connor exits so graciously on this album. That formative era is a fraught time for girls, a dizzying span in which they’re most sought for beauty and cultural cachet yet their perspectives are forcefully minimized. Hear a song from a singer who taps their first euphorias, but know it’s merely real adults’ “ fetishization.” Try to understand your ever-changing physiology, then have a porcine politician insist that it’s not yours to protect. And the growing pains feel endless; while it is horrible to be a teen girl who isn’t taken seriously by society, it’s even worse being a young woman unsure what to do with the autonomy that threatens it. Definitely required some cleaning and anti-static brushing after opening, but sounds great! It's full and punchy but everything still sounds very clear. I'm hearing a lot that I never noticed when just streaming it-- this pressing sounds surprisingly organic for such a digital-sounding album. No skips or pops on my copy and only minimal surface noise. The worst thing I can say about it is that the bass response could be a little better, but it's still satisfying.I bought this album to dilute the vinyl music library with more or less fresh pop. In general, I recommend this album release.

A3 - Published by: Songs Music Publishing / Wolf Cousins (STIM)/Warner/Chappell Music Scand (STIM). Recorded at Electric Lady Studios in New York, NY, USA and Conway Recording Studios in Los Angeles, CA, USA. Mixed at Mixstar Studios, Virginia, USA. Mastered at Sterling Sound, New York, NY, USA. Vocal production [...] for Suga Wuga Music, Inc. Song reminds me of a time where I was at my peak, I was happy, and in love. Now it feels like a faded memory that never happened, that's what vibe this song gives, almost a forgotten tape found years later with wear and tear. Very beautiful song that will always give me the chills. This is my 3rd CASTLEBEAT album & I wanted to experiment a little bit with different sounds / styles. The songs span from dream pop, jangle pop, rnb, lofi hip hop, synthwave, all under the lo-fi pop umbrella - a little bit for everyone. Like always, the songs have been recorded at home, hope you enjoy!Interesting mixes on this. Kind of a different listening experience. My copy has quite a bit of noise and pops but I bought it used for half what it’s selling for now so I’m not too upset. Just happy to have this album finally in my collection! uno de mis discos que mejor suena, que más disfruto a la hora de escuchar; es toda una experiencia, lo recomiendo. i honestly can’t believe i even own this. was hunting this down for years, and can now finally say i own my favorite album of all time on gorgeous color vinyl. the gatefold is incredible quality, and inserts are beautiful, and the blue vinyl is sturdy and a wonderful royal shade. Melodrama is Lorde’s study of being a young woman finding her own conviction in unsteady circumstances. Sometimes, this also involves being single—a breakup and a raucous house party serve as thematic through-lines—but romance is only part of the album’s script. In the difficult, exhilarating course of the record, written largely when Lorde was 18 and 19, her true reward comes with her embrace of self. As a nod to her clearest pop forbearer, her peace is in accepting that she will, sometimes, end up dancing on her own.
