ALICE SKYE
I Feel Better But I Don’t Feel Good BAD APPLES / UNIVERSAL
qually pensive and punchy, Alice Skye’s second LP is nothing short of breathtaking. Ebbing and flowing between deep, simmering melancholy and bright, captivating dreaminess, the Wergaia stalwart simply refuses to hold back; she’s crafted a record perfect for those long, introspective late-night road trips. Guitars on the record are subtle and understated, but strikingly impactful when they do lead the fray – take for example the more throughout; the bold, attention-grabbing solo on “Browser History” feels so because it’s underscored by a simple, cantering beat, Skye’s warm, honeyed ruminations so easy to melt into on either side of it.
