I already gave my praises to the album on bandcamp (it's really good!), but I wanna say I also really love the art for this. it's minimal but very effective

Wowww Hazel - wanted to wait until I had some decent time to listen to it a couple of times through in full with no distractions (that day was today). It's really excellent! A step above many that are making similiar sounds/exploring similiar genres IMO. There's a great deal of joy in it - that feels genuine and vulnerable. Often I find much of the hyper-pop and hyper-pop-adjacent stuff to come across as insincere. Difficult to make music like this that also feels open, welcoming. I might write a proper review soon.. really awesome work. We are not worthy etc. x

Love to hear the tip of the hat to the “God Knows” riff (and the count-in?) on “close”.

Hazel hitting us with the most subtly erotic cover art yet.

This album takes me back somewhere and I absolutely adore it. ‘Close’ in particular made my fucking heart swell. I used to make dumb little burnt mix CD’s of J-pop/J-rock and anime songs for my parents and my Dad loved listening to them in the car even though he understood 0% of the lyrics. My mother and sister ran away when I was 15, which turned everything upside down for us. This album takes me back to the mad, unpredictable times in the first weeks after where we’d go on drives and me and my brother would be rolling around in the back of my Dad’s land rover with no seatbelts, a sketchbook on my lap with a Bleach opening (shout out to Asterisk) or Shiina Ringo or Utada Hikaru blaring on the speakers. Not really knowing what we were going to do or what the future held. They were weird, terrifying, messy times but I felt so weirdly hopeful and free. Like despite the trauma of suddenly having half a family it was our time together now, our journey, the wind was in our hair and we’d figure it out together somehow. We lost Dad to cancer earlier this year. My brother moved upcountry so I rarely see him. I’d give anything for those crazy sunny windy days in the back of an unsafe car with them, but this album took me back there somehow. My Dad would have absolutely loved this if he could hear it. Thank you, so much. I hope that doesn’t sound weird. But this probably all sounds weird and now my anxiety is kicking in so uhhh Thanks, for everything you do. You’re a diamond.

When i ride my bike in the evening, from uni to my home sometimes the sunlight hits just perfectly beautiful against the trees and road, it makes me feel warm and happy, same with this album. also "fake blood recipe" is such a good song
