Our Take

Arlo Parks' debut album "My Soft Machine" is a delightful concoction of indie-pop goodness that will have you bopping your head and tapping your toes in no time. Parks, with her honeyed vocals and introspective lyrics, invites listeners into her world of self-discovery and vulnerability.

The album kicks off with the infectious track "Eugene," a love letter to a failed relationship that showcases Parks' storytelling prowess. From there, we are taken on a journey through tracks like "Hurt" and "Green Eyes," each one a gem in its own right.

Parks' songwriting is nothing short of poetic, with her ability to capture the complexities of human emotions in a way that is both relatable and profound. Whether she's exploring themes of heartbreak, identity, or mental health, Parks does so with a rare authenticity that is sure to resonate with listeners of all ages.

One highlight of the album is the track "Black Dog," a raw and haunting exploration of depression that is both heartbreaking and cathartic. Parks' vulnerability shines through in every word, reminding us that it's okay to not be okay.

Overall, "My Soft Machine" is a stunning debut from a young artist who is sure to make waves in the music industry. With its dreamy melodies and heartfelt lyrics, this album is a must-listen for anyone craving a bit of musical escapism. Trust us, Arlo Parks is a name you won't soon forget.
