The Glorification of Sadness

Paloma Faith

A sprawling, cinematic autopsy of a ten-year relationship. Raspy soul vocals meet lush orchestral arrangements and sharp, modern pop production.

February 16, 2024 · RCA

Find on Amazon

A relentless, confrontational exploration of grief that eventually finds its way to a hard-won resilience.

Moments Worth Listening For
The jarring transition from the spoken interlude of track 5 into the unapologetic swagger of Bad Woman.
The devastatingly dry and close-mic vocal delivery on Divorce that makes the room feel smaller.
The explosive, synth-driven release during the chorus of Cry on the Dance Floor that mimics a panic attack turning into a dance.
