"Bloated", with it's big gesture of over the top shoegaze guitars and driving dance beats, is the perfect opener of a record that is as diverse as Björk's seminal album "Post". The topic of an Instagram star, who is weary of feeding the expectations but in love with herself is also a good representation of "artistocrazy"... a record that is in large parts about our unhinged online behaviour.
lyrics
BLOATED
So High
Can’t Feel The End Of It
Hold Me Tight
Before I Drown In It
So High
Can’t Feel The End Of It
So Fly
You Don’t Know Me,
To Hell!!! It’s Like This...
„See The Sights, They’re All So Pretty
But, In Fact, They’re Hot!
I Feel The Earth Revolve
I’m The Gift Of God“
„Try Your Best,
But You Can’t Have Me
I’m Miles Away From This
Join Another Party
In Eternal Bliss“
Well-Nigh
I See The End Of It
Eye To Eye
As If My Senses Flipped
So Trite
Can Feel The End Of It
So Blythe
Has Her Own Private Hell,
It’s Like This:
„See The Sights, They’re All So Pretty
But, In Fact, They’re Hot!
I Feel The Earth Revolve
I’m The Gift Of God“
„Try Your Best,
But You Can’t Have Me
I’m Miles Away From This
Join Another Party
In Eternal Bliss“
