AndiGaga 6,645 Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 This album is a masterpiece. Adult girl & Hello Kitty gave me Goosebumbs. Digital Fantasy is so unique and new for her. Its an amazing album. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndiGaga 6,645 Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 Cupids girl is the weakest song on the album. So far my top 3 are: 1. Hello Kitty 2. Adult Girl 3. Everybody knows I'm sad 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOVEDRUG 10,522 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 I need more listens to figure out where this lands on my Marina album ranking (for context Froot is my favourite by a fairly significant margin) but it's a fantastic album. A huge step-up from Love + Fear and Ancient Dreams, both of which felt a little forced in my opinion, both in the opposite direction from the other. The writing here is much better than on Ancient Dreams, and sonically it's the first time I've heard her doing genuinely new and interesting things since Froot. 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt 460 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 (edited) Not out yet for me, but Cupid's Girl has become one of my all time favorite Marina songs. I'm an OG fan, I've seen her live 3 times. But since she dropped the Diamonds, she's been losing me a bit more with each release. From the last 3 singles, I only like Cupid's Girl, Cuntissimo and Butterfly were way too cringe for me. Hopping there is at least a few more tracks I'll love on this album tonight. Edited June 6 by Matt typo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ilia Malinin 1,541 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 (edited) i must admit, i really like I <3 YOU. i didn't think anything was gonna get in my head after CUNTISSIMO, but I <3 YOU has electra heart / froot vibes. it's the most marina song i've heard in years. i'd even argue that it's marina and the diamonds over marina.

princedeeblebleble 1,409 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 (edited) On initial listen It's a bit too early Marina for my taste in its wibe, with more listenable vocal deliveries; but its a solid really good album overall, lookong forward to listening to it more in depth ^^ still think Cupds girl and Cuntissimo are the best.

SS77 1,986 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 The production is SOLID. The most intricate since Electra Heart. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nickypie101 1,566 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 This album is incredible. As a fan since 2014 I’m so pleased. Production is insane, CJ did that 1 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronco 9,902 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 So I'm just gonna capture thoughts here as I go through it - PoP actually made me excited to listen to the new album in full. Butterfly was a terrible choice for lead. Cuntissimo is a perfect return to the deliberately ironic lyricis of her earlier albums. Should have been the lead. Rollercoaster feels like Hollaback Girl if Avril Lavigene sang it with a little bit of Final Fantasy instrumental thrown in. Metallic Stallion is what fully sold me on the album. Je Ne Sais Quoi is a bit mid. Digital Fantasy made no impact on me. Everybody Knows I'm Sad is peak Family Jewels. Hello Kitty would have killed on Tumblr. I <3 You has a brilliant instrumental, all of the album instrumentals are great. Way more disco than I expected. Like this more than I expected. Adult Girl is pure Marina. Its grownup Teen Idle. Final Boss also feels Electra Heart coded. It's a solid 7/10 album for Marina lovers. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chromaticangel 117 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 I've loved MARINA since Electra Heart but this is easily her worst I'm sorry... even L+F was more interesting skeleton guns are wedding bells in the attic 2 4 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morphine Prince 105,156 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 It's not awful but it feels very uninspired. Maybe 2-3 songs I'd return to... but not really. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
suchheights8 242 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 Overall a great album for her and it showed she can still have "fun" as an artist. Her last couple of releases were preachy and lyrically not interesting. This album has great production and you can tell she had a great time creating this body of work. I have been a fan since 2010, so it's nice to see her enjoying herself. My ranking of Albums now goes: - Froot - Her Magnum Opus -Electra Heart // The Family Jewels - they constantly switch spots. They made her tumblr famous - P.O.P - Could move up, but it's a great first listen and love this direction for her - Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land - It's mid, but has some good songs - Love + Fear - I just don't know what she was thinking with this one... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickoNacko 15 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 Butterfly reaaally worried be when it came out as the lead (sounds better in context with the album I think). I'm only 5 tracks in and she's eating. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
