Desire, I Want to Turn Into You

Caroline Polachek

A maximalist masterclass in art pop. Crystalline vocals meet Mediterranean guitars and glitchy breakbeats for a sound that feels both ancient and futuristic.

A vibrant, euphoric exploration of physical and emotional longing that feels both ancient and cutting-edge.

Moments Worth Listening For
The unexpected bagpipe solo that erupts during the climax of Blood and Butter
The way the vocals spiral into a bird-like trill at the start of Welcome to My Island
The sparse, rhythmic bassline of Bunny Is a Rider that feels like a physical pulse
The choral explosion of children's voices that closes out Billions
