The title track is out! I love it. It's like a twangified Aimee Mann song at times.

 

[funky]

It’s objectivity a lovely song but it’s a bit too country for me this one.

 

[FetchFugly]

I'm going to need a little time with this one. I like the feel of it, but I haven't been unable to unhear that hint of Somethin' Stupid in the verses and the transitions to the chorus are a bit of a journey.

I absolutely love this song now. The guitar in it is hypnotic.

- Dry Spell that is. Not the new one.

 

[FannyFaudrey]

I love both songs now. She’s still got it!

[Mark R 3]

Kacey has just announced a North American tour. I hope she tours the UK too and not just London.

 

[FetchFugly]

Loving this. I Believe in Ghosts is my early pick.

 

[Jark]

this is out TODAY? good lord. I'm on Tori for now but can someone report if the Miranda collab is the campest thing in Kacey's discog (at least since High Horse)?

 

[FannyFaudrey]

This is such a great album. Definitely more of a traditional country sound than her past few albums, but it’s all just soooo good.

It isn't camp in a High Horse way. The mariachi is to the fore on this one.

 

[FetchFugly]

Rhinestoned is absolutely gorgeous.

It feels instantly familiar melodically... I thought it was a bit reminiscent of Let Your Love Flow, but I just listened to that and it isn't so close.

 

[FetchFugly]

It isn't camp in a High Horse way. The mariachi is to the fore on this one.

Although saying that, maybe a certain kind of camp...

And we both love Willie
But I mean, really... what asshole doesn't like Willie?

 

[GNL]

This album's great. I also just love her voice.

 

[FetchFugly]

Also it sounds like Miranda is going to have the camp more than covered:

"horses and divorces and we both like to drink - maybe we're both more alike than we think". self-deprecating lyrics I quite like the gentle mariachi shimmer of this one. the vocal production is a bit odd though.

I need to listen to this album properly but it landed on a mad day for new music. and I'm scared I won't love it.

 

[Jark]

oh Rhinestoned is a gorgeous delight.

 

[Jark]

Mexico Honey has been CERTIFIED SULTRY GEM

 

[FannyFaudrey]

This just gets better and better with every listen. What an effortlessly perfect record!

 

[K.C.]

Gorgeous album. I always write her off butt she always comes back with something amazing. Horses and Divorces is the highlight for me so far but I need more time with it.

 

[Joseph]

I just listened to this today. Now tell me why I almost starting crying to Coyote while doing yard work

This is easily her best work since Golden Hour.

10/10

 

[BoysForSeles]

Gave this a listen today and it was a very instant record, ‘Golden Hour’ has always been my fave but that took time to embed. Enjoyed this a lot on first listen, she does write some cracking lines.

 

[FetchFugly]

 

[BoysForSeles]

My word, Coyote is the most gorgeous song I’ve heard in a long time.

 

[FannyFaudrey]

There's a digital edition with two bonus songs out: 'All My Exes' and 'Caballero'.

 

[Jark]

I Believe in Ghosts is hitting HARD today. that driving groove, the electric guitar...

I Believe in Ghosts is hitting HARD today. that driving groove, the electric guitar...

Oh it is wonderful and reminds me a bit of Where Have All the Cowboys Gone?

 

[FetchFugly]

You got me shaking my ass in my hot pink shorts
You're laying down laughing on the bathroom floor

Kacey's dry spell DEAD

 

[Joseph]

There's a digital edition with two bonus songs out: 'All My Exes' and 'Caballero'.

And only 5 bucks on iTunes in the US

 

[funky]

I still need to listen to this!

 

[BoysForSeles]

#4 in the UK midweeks so on course for another well deserved top 10 for this album.

 

[Joseph]

 

[FannyFaudrey]

Debuts at #7 in the UK.

 

[Mark R 3]

Her fourth top 10 album.

 

[Mark R 3]

Wow just listened to this and it just might be my fave album by Kacey. I think it's her most "country" sounding album too so a win all round.

 

[Mark R 3]

Kacey is touring the UK in early 2027! Tickets go on sale this Friday. London, Glasgow and Manchester confirmed.
This is great news!

My Middle of Nowhere picture disc LP and "signed card" arrived this morning. Definitely don't bother ordering if you're expecting a proper signed signature. They've gone down the Gary Barlow route of doing the bare minimum. For comparison, see my signed Star-crossed LP from a few years ago.
