The album marks a new chapter in the artist's musical journey: intimate writing and cinematic imagery meet in a sound dimension between auteur pop and retro suggestions.

The cassette’s cover is a dream for the crate-digging exoticist. A bearded man in glasses stands at the center of the frame, wearing the black eksorasson and kamilavka of the Greek Orthodox church. He angles a matching obsidian seven-string guitar skyward, the Greek Orthodox cross painted in gold just beneath the bridge. The letters around it abbreviate a mighty message, “Jesus Christ Conquers.” Only his beard breaks the blackness, the white cascading down his vestments. He looks like a hesher but also, of course, a priest, a binary complicated by the rectangle of 36 red roses that surround him, all…

The music of sadie, the New York-based artist née Anna Schwab, finds common ground between the bedroom pop of early Clairo and Charli XCX’s rare straightforward ballads. The Auto-Tuned vocals and quirky drum programming of her early releases veered towards hyperpop territory, but her music isn’t interested in ambushing the listener with that genre’s frenetic sounds and fast BPMs; instead, it creates a cozy, emotionally vulnerable environment. For her debut album, which she made after leaving a decade-long relationship, sadie reached for an acoustic guitar to create a collection of songs that subtly fleshes out her sound with analog instrumentation.Compared…
