Life's a Lie
I wanna do something for you Like holding your hand while you're sleeping But I can't shake the thought that burns in me I'm alone, I'm alone, I'm... See the rest of the song lyrics

    Endlessly moody and surprisingly versatile, this record moves by its own secret logic. [No. 144, p.61]

    Nothing builds to a blank, frazzled catharsis, while Sell It Back is an eerie, epic closer: these are torch songs written with petrol and a flamethrower.

    Often, she comes across as heir to songwriters such as Todd Rundgren and Randy Newman--raising a jaded, critical eye to the world. [Sep 2017, p.38]

    It's pop opulence with the wires sticking out the back, high-end songwriting with a coat of lead paint, but those flaw and fixes give Shitty Hits a compelling outsider edge. [Sep 2017, p.116]

    Equal parts brittle and brazen, Shitty Hits is the work of a well-past-promising newcomer.

    It’s a fairly dark record overall, musically and lyrically.

    At times things get wincingly experimental; but mostly, it's claustrophobic and deeply magnetic. [Aug 2017, p.96]
