amazing how quickly my stance shifted from "we acknowledge only one singer-songwriter named donelly in this house" to "actually this is great" -- particularly if you, like me, have been disappointed at how low-key and unanimated so many singer-songwriters tend

Nice, I like her. The Aussie indie crowd has a particular dgaf vibe that I dig.

I'm really enjoying this album too. She's such a great lyricist. Some of her delivery reminds me of Lily Allen in places.

haven't heard the whole thing yet, but i'm in love with "tricks," one of my favs for the year for sure

I saw her play with Natalie Prass last year, and felt like she might fill the void Allo Darlin' left.

I can hear this -- I've been trying to figure out which '90s alt-rock vocalist she specifically reminds me of, or whether it's some sort of mental composite

I dont think I've ever heard a vocalist balance so carefully between animated and annoying

I thought this might be a bit more uptempo in the vein of "Tricks" but my initial doubts have been reshaped by how good a lyricist she is

The EOY poll playlist is forcing me to consider that I likely underestimated Flood initially.

"Lungs" (lead single) reminded me too much of Finger Eleven's "Good Times". Then the album didn't have any big standouts and no funny bits and I kinda forgot about it. But going back in a few times, it's gorgeous throughout. Still growing on me. Love the title track in particular.
