The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess review
The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess
Played loud in the kitchen. The neighbours have opinions.
9/104.8 / 5
The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess is the Chappell Roan album people play in kitchens, and the reviews are unusually united. I played it loud. The neighbours have a case. The songs are built to be sung, including by people who should not sing.The praise is the choruses and the fact it is fun without being stupid. The criticism is that it is theatre, and if you hate theatre you will hate this. I don't. A couple of tracks are thinner than the ones everyone knows. The album still holds together, which is more than most viral records manage.
