Will Hooton

Kenn

You would listen to: That! Feels Good by Jessie Ware. You will LOVE IT

Gary Calderon

Ajay can you check out WEEDKILLER by Ashnikko?? ❤️❤️❤️❤️ It has a Ethel feature on one of the songs!

Clinton B.

ITS BEEN A WHILE SINCE U REACT TO RAP ALBUM, SO PLEASEE REACT TO TRAUMAZINE BY MEGAN THEE STALLION, ITS A VERY DIVERSE ALBUM I BET YOURE GONNA LOVE IT AJAY💗💗💗

Kenn

If you wanted more alternative and slightly scary stuff, Kesha's new album Gag Order would be perfect. It's the most raw, cutting, and personal project I've heard in a long long time.

Emanuel Gutierrez

plss do a revisit using the Genius annotations from Ethel and her friend explaining the whole story of the album and you get to see the entire story arc of ethel cain and her life!!! 🥹🥹🥹❤️❤️❤️

purpin532

Sun Bleached Flies gets me everytime 😭

Daniel

I listened to the album and really enjoyed it but when I learned the lore every listen since is a whole different experience it's a whole experience with so many layers. So glad I subbed to get your full reaction.

Adrian Seaward-Moore

react to inbred nexttt

hayden

subbed for this video <3

Eliana Serrano

best 5$ ive spent

sleepyy

Honestly my favourite album of all time. Look into the lore for Ethel cain when you get the chance, you wont regret it!

Dylan De Caires

you should react to stick season by noah kahan!😩

Daniel Mascorro

I would also recommend Inbred and Golden Age by Ethel Cain. They're both EPs so a bit shorter but you might be able to cover them as one or do the separate videos ^^ they're equally as brilliant so i'd love to know your reaction to those too

Paul

This is literally me, it feels like it’s happening to me or it’s like listening to a close friend’s dairy. The fact that its a reality to so many woman/people in similar situations is just heartbreaking and traumatic. Makes me think of how dark this world is but also makes me thank god for the life I have. I’m a sensitive person and stories like this really effect me, they make so emotional which are the same feeling you are having. 💔

SC LovesPancakes

We need a revisit after you’ve read the lore, it makes it so much more of a heartbreaking experience.

Jared Paul

i subscribed to this patreon just to watch ajay's entire reaction TT___TT

Denise Fernandez

Genius lyrics will help clear up any confusion you have and explain the story from start to finish of the album!

Cole Fisher

You go girl hope we get that recti on tbh

adrian de leon

Thoughts?? 🤩

adrian de leon

SAME LOL

aria williams

did you enjoy it???? it's more fun when she read slowly the lyrics in ptolemaea, and sing along the song

Khalilou N'diaye

Such a good reaction ughh!!

Luke Bordner

I sure did make a Patreon account and subscribed just for the full reaction to this album.

Joseph Harrell

please revisit this album after you read through what the story of the album is. cause on my initial listen it didnt make a lick of sense, but after reading through what the story potreys it becomes 1000% better.

Carlos Carella

Loved this reaction! If you liked the dark moody distorted instrumentals, I’d recommend listening to Not To Disappear by Daughter (2016) the instrumentals in that album are unreal!! Especially Fossa and How.

Lauren Bell

pls revisit with genius annotations! also boygenius the record reaction?..

Valvalpie Heh

we need the revisit to preacher's daughter already, but complementing the whole context with the annotations from genius. every song, and the particular order their in, tell an amazing story

Nathaniel Mellado S

MOTHER CAIN

Hannah

U should try out the inbred EP after u listen to this another time!

Nick Moulder

omggg saw u posted this on YouTube and immediately had to subscribe to the patreon to watch the full reaction. such a heavy but beautifulll album in every single way. def give it a second listen with the genius annotations!

Sam Eschberger

Saw the YouTube notification of this and immediately got in my comfy zone aka tub and skincare night then I saw a comment about how this uncut reaction was so good so I walked my naked ass through the house found my debit card and had to subscribe. Beyond excited to see your reaction to thissssssssd

Stephy Arguello

Guys this is my first time listening to the album as well. I was following the lyrics and story on genius and I have to say… I feel so depressed and full of sorrow. Like wtf. Beautiful voice and sound but the lyrics have me fucked up.

Emily

I’d rather her do the album reaction when it comes out than to one song. I already know how she would feel about vampire.

Emily

Sweetner first

Emily

day 9 of asking for a honeymoon revisit

Pavan

Khalilou N'diaye

Been waiting for Crash by Charli xcx!!

Tim Person

i'm gonna go ahead and add my two cents here because now i believe anything is possible when you ask: AJay, do The Record by Boygenius !! <3

Gregory Bruno

So happy to see you checking this album out, AJay! This has been my favorite album that I have listened to this year since I've discovered it 5 months ago! Should you do a second listen, please do check the lyric annotations at Genius, it will explain the concept and story :D

Mariel Manalo

This is Why by Paramore!

Jay

day 8 of asking for a honeymoon revisit

Pavan

Ajay if you ever get the chance to revisit this with the Genius lyrics up it will make a whole lot more sense and put a lot of things into context... wooooof you're in for it!

alex rubin

we need you to have the genius lyrics pulled UP babes because the strangers outro with the whole context of the story hits like a truck 😭

Bryce C.

on my relisten once i fully knew the story sunbleached flies felt so different, it went from just a pretty song to making me sob, on my first listen i definitely felt the exact same way you did but once the story was explained i was in SHOCK, it genuinely felt like a whole new album when i re listened knowing the exact story and the songs went by so fast

rya

I'm doing good, I hope you are as well 💗

Ibrahim K

Caprisongs by Fka Twigs! Still love your reaction to Magdalene!

Jacob Winter

Really recommend you listen to Crash by Charli XCX. Is her most pop album yet and it’s so good. Also Diamonds and Dancefloors by Ava Max. Every single song bangs.

Kevin Rolon

Recommending Five seconds flat by Lizzy McAlpine!! Love your vids. Welcome back.

Nikolas Hernandez

i definitely recommend looking up the lyrics on genius!! the album is a story, with each song being a chapter, and genius explains each one. i would LOVE to see a revisit of this album with you going through the songs and reading the meaning behind them before/after you listen to each one!

Hannah W

please react to vampire by olivia rodrigo!!!!

Gary Lane

day 7 of asking for a honeymoon revisit

Pavan

Hello I love you first of all ~ And I think you would really enjoy the k-pop group NewJeans and they just dropped a new EP titled Get Up :)

Donavan Avant

@ajay i love you girl so so much been with you since the beginning so glad that you came back and especially for reviewing my favorite album of recent time. you have no idea how happy this made me and how much i laughed and cried watching you enjoying it.

alex escapita

Hi Ajay, I would recommend reacting to Age of Pleasure by Janelle Monae. Its such a great summer album <3

N Z

Ajay I'm loving your reactions you are doing amazing, I'm so glad you're back, but I would really like to recommend to review Hold the Girl by Rina Sawayama, love u <3

Samuel Aragão

Loved your reaction. I would strongly recommend to read genius for a more better understanding of Ethel’s journey on this album. She wrote and produced most of the songs btw 🫶🏼

Ludwin Alexander

I recommend Raye: My 21st Century Blues

Matthew Munyan-Penney

You should react to Weyes Blood's new album "And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow" since I know you loved her "Titanic Rising" album!

Kevin Rivera

one day you gotta listen to mitski

noah

ajay please listen to 5 seconds flat by lizzy mcalpine!

Jake Rodriguez

Omg I’m so glad u listened to this one of a kind album. This album is purely conceptual and some of the songs draw from Ethel’s personal experiences but it’s mostly storytelling of a character going thru trials and tribulations before the character meets her demise. There’s a lot to digest from the storytelling I’d recommended looking at Genius.com to get the entire scoop of things but thank you for listening to this project. It truly blew me away the first time I listened to it 🖤🖤

Bradley Berdecia

I'm so glad you listened to this! Note: Ethel Cain is a fictional character, and this album is a concept album!!! Some events parallel the artist's life in some ways, but definitely not the actual storyline. If you want to fully appreciate this album and its storyline, the Genius lyrics have some helpful notes. If you need anything explained, I’m soooo more than happy to answer questions! Also, Ethel Cain (real name Hayden Anhedonia) produced, wrote, and sang almost all of the album herself. LOVE you and this album.

Nathan Cagle

Ajay you really need to listen to Ancient Dreams In A Modern Land by MARINA! You’ll love it I promise!!

Pete Marianne

i’ve never waited for a reaction for this album for so long so glad you finally did this reaction, i really recommend going into her eps before hand also, all are amazing and not as long as this album

david

Ajay please listen to MARINA album Ancient Dreams In A Modern Land

Levi Cruz

Thank you for this beautiful reaction. You should look up each song on Genius cause this album is a story and each song is sortve like a chapter in Ethel's story. Also if you get a chance I think you should react to If I Can't Have Love I Want Power by Halsey. I think you might enjoy the vibe a lot! Oh and Punisher by Phoebe Bridgers

Red Jones

I became a Patreon the moment someone mentioned this reaction on Reddit omg thank you Ajay we love you 😭

Red Jones

you’re amazing i love you girl you should react to gag order by kesha next it’s amazing and experimental and so introspective you would love it

carson kyle?

Hopefully you can react to Hold the girl by Rina Sawayama, I promise it will not disappoint. Please I’m on my knees🙏🏼🙏🏼

Benjamin Spreen

Queen Mother Ajay, you have to give a listen to Dirt Femme by Tove Lo! Her latest project has some of the best production and lyrics Ive ever heard on an album. Not to mention the songs have an amazing message behind them. Please give it a listen!!!!!!!!

Noah Carter

loved itt, hope u react to Hold The Girl by Rina Sawayama soon

kitcain

Def agree with the many people who recommended desire i want to turn into you (she knows how to use that VOICE as an instrument!) and raye (incredible journey with a great voice!)

P.R. Dayvonne

Aj!!! Look up the Genius lyrics for every song on the album! They tell a story of religion, abuse, Cannibalism and death! All metaphorical of course lol. Thoroughfare and Sun-Bleached Flies, with the lyrics explained/story explaining are STUNNING/Sad/Everything. Glad you listened🩷

Zachary Bolin

I suggest you react to Desire, I wanna turn into you by Caroline Polachek & Pang (her debut album), considering you mentioned that door was one of your favourites in the ‘best songs of 2019’ vid and I TRULY recommend you listen to her discography! and if you’re interested reacting to more of Ethel’s discography, I recommend Inbred (the E.P).

Johnson Jin

day 6 of asking for a honeymoon revisit

Pavan

Calico by Ryan Beatty is beautiful i think you’d enjoy!

matt

This was a reaction vid I’ve been waiting for SO LONG & did not actually expect you to react to. Of course, the lyrics & layout is a little confusing—-it’s a fictional album about a fictional character ‘Ethel Cain’ the singer’s real name is Hayden & pretty much it’s an album that covers various topics including religious trauma. Basically, Ethel meets a man named Isaiah in Thoroughfare who he then pimps her out and….killed her AND cannibalized her. This was such a fun & heartbreaking reaction seeing you all confused especially the hard times reaction :(

Johnson Jin

i’ve been waiting for this 🙏🙏

Jonathan Yang

please react to Sky Ferreira's 'night time, my time' album <3

Marco

May I recommend Lucid by Raveena??? 🧚‍♀️🧚🧚‍♂️

Tony g

i LOVED this!! pls could you react to Raye's 21st century blues it's insaneee her record label were awful and suppressed her music for 7 years, this is the debut she's been wanting to drop all along her label was a flop but she's independent now

Mirabelle Otuoze

YES! She'll miss out on a great record, my fave pop album of the year! I remember her mentioning Bunny is a Rider in one of her previous videos before hiatus as one of her faves of that year.

Urosh

please do Sling by Clairo!!!

BEAN

I LOVE that even without context, you still understood a whole lot of this album! ❤️ A second listen after maybe reading about some lore and genius annotations would be AMAZING

James Ainsworth

YESSS THIS ALBUM IS SO GOOD <3333

MahiroTheCheerio

This definitely deserves a revisit!!!! look at the genius notes and it will all makes sense!

Connor Fowler

YESSS MAWMA CAIN

Yohan Jannuzzi

Ajay go listen to 333 by tinashe !!!!!

Sweep

Some people are saying that in the comments

Manuel Hoqui

Yes it's a concept album, here's a thread explaining each track: https://twitter.com/Dylanxious/status/1525090190011801600 If you want to listen to other alternative artists, I recommend St Vincent she's really talented and her albums were nominated for the Grammys (she won 2). Halsey also made an alternative music album in 2021 named "If I Can't Have Love, I Want Power" which is also a concept album. I'm also looking forward to a reaction to one of Megan Thee Stallion albums. I hope you listen to one of them one day.

MA

When did she say that?

MA

Me too!!!

Calum Nesbitt

also u should check out raven by kelela its so good <3

Hello Ajay ! Loved the reaction so much, i've been waiting for it. Preacher's Daughter is such a deep album with such a dark lore.

Maddi Jorfi

I think to really understand this album more go onto genius and look at the description of each song.

ryan

ADEN RÆ

Raye- My 21st century blues so woorth it

Lhimax 0060

Im watching the video and be like: who’s telling her that she’s being killed by that man 😭😭

Sebastian

Hello Ajay! I'd like you to react to these recent records: - Love Sux by Avril Lavigne - The Gods We Can Touch by AURORA - The Loneliest Time by Carly Rae Jepsen - This Is Why by Paramore - Bebe by Bebe Rexha - Gag Order by Kesha

Marco Ghezzi

YAYYY SO HAPPY you reacted to this!! If you’d like some context, Ethel Cain is a character portrayed by Hayden (the actual singer) and this story is about the life and death of Ethel Cain (the death occurs at THAT moment in Ptolomea) and the songs afterwards are after her death. Strangers is from the perspective of the body that is still sitting in the perpetrators house.

Juniper

I'd love to see your reaction to chemistry by Kelly Clarkson and The Good Witch by Maisie Peters ( One of Taylor's Daughter) ❣️

Santana Xavier

OMG YES!

Marlon Castro

"inbred" is insanely good! react to it when you have a chance to!

Angel Vizcarra

please please please react to her album "inbred"!!!!!!

Angel Vizcarra

Mother!!! Carly Rae Jepsen just announced the release of her new album, The Loveliest Time on June 28. It would be great if you could go through The Loneliest Time first (her 2022 album which was released the same day Midnights was released and was severely overlooked by many!) as I think this is the continuation of the first album. The album is just pop perfection, I just know you’ll love it! 🫶🏼

nicole

PLEASE LISTEN TO SLING BY CLAIRO

Nathan Fratesi

IM SO EXCITED

Nicholas

YEA MAKA

Nicholas

Ajayll!!! I think you should do a revisit with genius lyrics on, they explain the album concept so incredibly and when you get it its soooo mindblowing. Preachers daughter is a masterpiece in every aspect and it grows over time. You should give it a Second try and also pls i recommend you to listen to gag order by kesha and that! Feels good by jessie ware those are my 2023 aotys i know you will love them! Love you💗

Bee Lilley

American Teenager is THE song. also please react to diamonds & dancefloors by Ava Max now that you're done with the chronological order 😭❤️

Billfromtwitter

GIRLLLLL omg 😭🙏 you’re literally my favorite person ever for this. Yes, this album is mostly a fictional story (a great one at that), but it does indeed draw from some of Ethel’s experiences as a trans woman who grew up in the South. For me, this album definitely needed to marinate because there’s just so much info and context that you can’t realistically absorb it in one listen. If you’d like, you can use the Genius lyrics website to see Ethel’s explanation of each song. Thank you so much for this reaction ❤️❤️❤️ I will definitely cherish it

Derek Tran

Yay! If we can get a Raye reaction on top of this my life is complete

React to Arca self studio titled and the kick series!

I'm so happy you liked this album and am looking forward to your revisit once you've learned what the concept is!! Ethel is such an amazing artist who has quickly rose to one of my top artists of all time. I had the privilege of hearing her live and her music just transcends, I was amazed at how beautiful it was.

Alex

i highly recommend watching an analysis video for this album

American Teenager is a life changing song … like it changed the trajectory of my life literally like SHE DID THAT

Riko

i actually started crying when you were understanding hard times…it’s probably one of my favorite songs ever and also the saddest song ever

blake dewitt

I found out about this album back in very early January of this year when it was trending. I remember listening to it the first time and loving what I heard but still trying to understand what story was fully being told. Since then this album has been on constant repeat and has quickly rose to my 4th (possibly 3rd) favorite album of all time. It's such a breath of fresh air because a lot of music being put out now you can tell is trying to fit a certain sound for billboard or tiktok but this one was strictly made because she had something she needed to say and wanted to share. To this day it is by far the most complex concept album I have heard and I am still learning new things about the story every time I listen. Thank you so much for listening because this was what I was not-so-patiently wishing and waiting for!

I just know that Ajay is gonna lose her shit over My 21st Century Blues

Aidan Hulse

n strangers is also abt how she watched isaiah literally eat her body 🙁

drake

omg i wanna add to isaiah offering her a ride that hayden has said ethel is an unreliable narrator and there was a thing that said she was actually kidnapped by him instead!!!!

emma🦢

Girl you have to listen to Desire, I want to turn into you by Caroline polachek it's so good!! 🖤✨

Jake420

THANK U FOR LISTENING TO HERR, SHE'S AMAZING!! i need ur reaction to Diamonds & Dancefloors by Ava Max 🫶🏼💗

mystique fierce

thank you for this. if you re-listen to the last 5 tracks again knowing she gets killed, you'll make sense of each song. even the instrumentals are so meaningful.

Alfonso Bosch Torres

YASSSSS

Phoebe

Can you please react to Gag Order by Kesha! It’s a special piece of work and the last album under that nasty man. It talks about her struggles mentally and the silence she’s been under. It’s a good piece of work ❤️

Shyness Oliphant

I love how you introduce us to new music to enjoy. You should react to Guitar Songs and What Was I Made For by Billie Eilish.

Ramiro Soria

an amazing indie album that is produced by the same producer as Melodrama and Norman F**g Rockwell (Jack Antonoff) you should listen to is "Sling" by Clairo

bleepie

Another great one Ajay!! Would absolutely love if you did either one of Kelsea Ballerini's recent projects: "SUBJECT TO CHANGE" or "Rolling Up the Welcome Mat" please! RUTWM actually has a short film directed by Kelsea as well!! And SUBJECT TO CHANGE was co-produced by one of the producers on emails i can't send.

Mason Castello

Carly Carly carly

Fino Van

react to ''the record'' by boygenius pls

Roney Felippe

Caroline Polachek next pls!!!

lucassssbmeo

Please listen to "Desire, i want to turn into you" by caroline polachek!

Erik

The lore behind this album is wild Hayden (Ethel) confirmed it on her twitter or tumblr but in short the album is about Ethel going through different relationships and in Ptolemaea the character, Ethel, dies and in Strangers she’s eaten by her killer/last lover. It’s. WILD. I think she said one of the songs is more personal but the majority is fictional. She’s an amazing storyteller.

Seasar

One of the few albums where even after the first listen, I knew it was gonna stick with me for a long time. Love the reaction!

CrispyRugs

PLEASE REACT TO “MY 21st CENTURY BLUES”

Tardioli

I LOVE YOU

Stella Plowman

i felt the same way my first listen too haha

Ryan Ehlers

ajay please do GET UP by NewJeans❤️❤️

Diego Luz

truly there is so much lore but i didn't know either until someone informed me so i get why it was confusing on first listen lmao

emma🕷️

Omg thank you Ajay!! Can you PLEASE do My 21st Century Blues by RAYE next? Thank you!

Laura Chapman

you should listen to this version of Ptolemaea : https://youtu.be/RtHuCebph6M all of the background vocals that you can't hear in the original really add a whole new level to the song

emma🕷️

My 21st Century Blues by RAYE next PLEASEEEE

Aidan Hulse

YAAAAAASSSSSSSSSS AJAY IM SO GLAD YOU DID THIS BFF 😭🎀

UNBAE

Petition for Ajay to relisten to the album but reading what Genius says the songs are about:

Ryan Ehlers

Not Ayjay getting it as soon as Strangers ends omg!! Didn’t think she was going to get it :) glad she pulled through after Hard Times.

Princey✨

Ptolemaea is one of my favorite songs and i love more than anything to watch people react to it😂😂

emma🕷️

SHE GOT ATE

Matt Blue

i am once again begging for IF I CAN'T HAVE LOVE by halsey 😭😭😭 I think you would really like the songs!!! The lyrics and instrumentals are so good

Tamaya Silva

Hi Ajay! This is actually a concept album! Ethel is a fictional character created by Hayden which is who’s singing! There’s lots of lore behind this album and i recommend revisiting after reading. Here’s a Twitter thread explaining every song! https://twitter.com/dylanxious/status/1525090190011801600?s=46 The album is so much better when you have the story in your head! Lovely reaction as always!

TJ Laxton

Hi!!! I'm not sure if you listen/react to any Kpop but you should definitely check out 'Get Up' by NewJeans!!! It's their 2nd EP and it just came out. It's really short though lollll

Reeky

Hello! Just so you know Paramore released a new album this year, it's called This Is Why and it's amazing, I remember you reacted to their album After Laughter and you liked it so maybe you can react to this one too please?

Luis G

Joshua Haryono

1:36:20 - yes.

Nick Trapani

great summarization!

L7kee

omg loved this thank you for reacting!! i really do love this album but after listening for a long time i found myself only returning to a few tracks. I would love to see your takes on the albums "stranger in the alps" and "punisher" by Phoebe Bridgers. They are some of my all time fave albums!

Wilson Jones

Ryan Beatty came back from a long hiatus with the album Calico pls give it a listen 🙏 the songwriting is immaculate

ForestElk

No problem! It can be extremely difficult to understand for new listeners, & especially for people who aren’t typically fans of massive & expansive concept albums such as Preacher’s Daughter. All of these songs are suggestive of strict religious upbringing while being queer, abuse, & generational trauma all set in a stereotypical “patriotic southern town,” something many of us can relate to a little too well. My hope for everyone is that listening to certain tracks can be just as healing for others as they were for me! As for her being “possessed” by Ethel Cain, check out “The Gospel According to Ethel Cain” by Vogue, it provides great insight!

Gavin Phillips

Been waiting for her to react to my AOTY as well 😭

Ian Dizon

YESSSSS PLEASE HOLD THE GIRL IS GONNA BLOW HER MINDDD

Juan Del Rey

BITCH I LOVE YOU SO MUCH

熊熊 熊熊

This reaction is everything thank you for this

Johnathan Morris

Ethel Cain is a character, if I'm not mistaken

Luis Urtecho

i never thought this day would come oh my god 💜

Fausteir

MOTOMAMI🙏🏼

Eduardo Elizondo

Can you react to Noah Kahan's Stick Season next please 🙏

William C.

Yes! Thanks for summing it up! Everybody needs to know the lore before their first listen because it can be metaphorically hard to understand. As Gavin said these lyrics can be found on Genius with all the explanations to all the lyrics and each and everyone of the songs!! I recommend to everyone who hasn’t understood the album to go there and investigate. Also important to know. Ethel Cain is not the singer, the singer’s real name is Hayden; Ethel is a character who is based allegedly in a real girl (Ethel Cain) whose ghost possessed Hayden and after that experience she proceeded to write and record this project based on Ethel’s life. I hope I made myself clear 😅 but that usually helps to understand a lot about the album and her music’s lore.

Juan Del Rey

You should film a revisit to this album where you read the meaning of the lyrics.

collin moore

So glad you took the time to listen! Until now, I was saving a large chunk of this album to listen to alongside you and goddamn I did not not expect that it would end up being like…a horror film or a V.C. Andrews novel.

Pierre Brown

Just seeing you post this made me emotional

Neck

Thank You so much for this reaction. It's a hard album to go through but is worth it. From what I know this is a concept album but some lyrics are from her real life. I think is from her until Hard Times. Cause the rest sound created cause she is alive LOL. That stranger takes her to the west and drug her and abuse her. At the end he kills her. And eat her. Strangers is her goodbye to her mother from heaven.

Rayden Rifaga

I think it would be a perfect time to react to a male album after all these girls journey and none is better than Noah kahan album "stick season".

Dexter

LOVED this! We'd love for you to react to the record by boygenius or punisher by phoebe bridgers, you're going to LOVE it

Gabriel Shepherd

when did she say it?

Caio Almeida Justino

other inspo for reaction: phoebe bridgers "punisher" and mitski "laurel hell" you'll LOVE them!!

Ariobimo

Thank you so much for listening to this queen❤️❤️❤️

wyatt

Love the new braids!! please give "My 21st Century Blues" by Raye and "Be the cowboy" by Mitski a chance

Ariobimo

Love the new braids! 💁🏽‍♀️ Haven’t heard of this artist so happy to discover with this watch! Hoping you’ll consider checking out Renee Rapp’s EP she dropped last year. She’s releasing her debut next month, I think she’s an artist to look out for!!

Bree Richards

Pls listen to HOLD THE GIRL by RINA SAWAYAMA next… 🥹🥹🥹

Kaiboon

Honestly, we probably should've warned you about certain aspects of this album, but it's still absolute perfection nonetheless. Family Tree (Intro) through Hard Times sums up the life of "Ethel Cain," up until the end of Act 1. Through act 1, we get an in-depth look of how she grew up, & what life experiences lead her down certain paths + shaped her into who she is (& wishes she could be); Act 1 touches on religious & familial trauma, as well as **Trigger Warning** SA, the "one that got away," & toxic love/toxic relationships she finds herself in, which results in her Lover from Western Nights' "demise" & Ethel on the run. Act 2 - Thoroughfare through Strangers - finds Ethel on the road, traveling alone until she meets Isaiah, a seemingly nice guy who offers her a ride; they fall deeply in love, but circumstances quickly change, hence the incredibly dark themes & undertones involving substance abuse, Ethel's eventual "demise", etc. between Gibson Girl & August Underground.. Televangelism - Sun Bleached Flies portrays Ethel's ascension to Heaven, Ethel reflecting on her life, family, & the man she never stopped loving, & finally ends with Ethel saying goodbye to her mother from Heaven during Strangers. (All of this can be found on Genius) Sorry for the incredibly long message y'all! LOL

Gavin Phillips

if you want to, you should 100% look up an explanation of the album as whole and the story it follows because it truly is a work of art its truly amazing, I loved ur review so happy you listened to it!!

CAN YOU DO "IF I CAN'T HAVE LOVE, I WANT POWER" BY HALSEY PLSS

Luis Eduardo

this album is kinda hard to understand with the lyrics, i reccomend genius Lyrics as they explains the albums storyline. Preachers daughter is an album by ethel Cain, ethel Cain is a character created by Hayden anhedonia. In this album Ethel represent the pathways Hayden would’ve ended up. Family tree intro sets the story about Ethel family and experiences with religion, American teenager represent quoting Hayden “ i wrote this song as an expression of my frustration with all the things the ‘American Teenager’ is supposed to be but never had any real chance of becoming.”. A house in Nebraska is about her reminiscing about her boyfriend Willoughby who left her. Western nights is about the story of Ethel and her man Logan, Logan is kind but is often violen and abusive and is committing crimes. Family tree is about the aftermath of Logan dying in shootout and after robbing a bank, Ethel is on the run from the cops. Hard times is about the sexual abuse from her father. Thoroughfare is about Ethel meeting a new guy Isaiah who takes her to California. Gibson girl is about Isaiah pimping Ethel out and feeding her drugs. Ptolemaea is about Ethel hallucinating from the drugs and Isaiah kills her in the end of the song. August underground represents Ethel dying as she accepts her death. Televangelism is piano intro of Ethel death and her ascension to heaven. Sun beached flies represent Ethel reminiscing in heaven, she makes peace with everything. Strangers is about Isaiah being a cannibal he is eating Ethel as she is dead, Ethel says hers goodbye to her mother at the end of the song.
