Ethel Cain: Perverts [Daughters of Cain]
Ethel Cain discovered unlikely pop fandom with Preacher’s Daughter, her 2022 debut album, due to its emotional dirges and heavy lyrics. As a substitute of turning towards catchier choruses, Cain subverts expectations fully together with her environment and moody new album, Perverts. Written, recorded, and produced fully by Cain and led by “Punish,” Perverts consists of sprawling drone songs, languid ambient music, and soft-spoken—if spoken in any respect—slowcore tracks that keep deliberately shrouded. For the immersive expertise, think about listening at night time.
