Bubble Treasure’s songwriting feels almost intentionally antithetical to Toxe’s club-centric past. The Siren she is, she spends most of the album luring us in and teasing us with a drop that never comes. The title track follows the sparse opener with what should shape up to be a dramatic banger—its heavy lead synths almost resemble witch house—but the payoff never hits; those synths just trudge on and on as her mesmeric vocals rain down (“I don’t care, I don’t care, I don’t care/Waterfall, waterfall”).
