bad guy
Interscope, under Universal. The menace is a costume, and the costume is the point.
Interscope put this on the shelf. Universal owns the imprint. The record is a teenager trying on cruelty the way you try on a coat, and finding that the coat gets applause.
The craft is not the problem. The lesson is. A house can hear it once and say what the costume is asking the listener to enjoy.
The eight
Industry
7/10
The production is careful. Someone did the job.
Household
3/10
Intimacy is a pose. No vow, no child, no table.
Piety
2/10
Nothing is revered. The joke is that nothing should be.
Courage
5/10
She walks toward the scare. It is still a game.
Republic
3/10
Other people are the audience for the act.
Temperance
3/10
The appetite is winked at. No bill arrives.
Truth
5/10
She knows it is a character. The song still wants you to like the character.
Stewardship
3/10
A sound, not a life.
Live historicallyPlay it with a teenager only if you are willing to say, out loud, what the costume is for.
