    Great album

    Also Melodrama.. and many others but 'pop music sucks bro' while listening to certain s-----y rappers is the right answer here I guess.

    Enjoy! I'd say SSFAP is more accessible/expansive while PP is more lo-fi/raw/dream pop. In saying that they really aren't that far apart stylistically considering she taps into old demos she made a few years back and updates them.

    God I love her... Michelle Zauner is f---ing great. :lawd:

    If Blonde is considered pop then I'd have that as my choice as well!

    Had a blast listening to both of these, SSFAP was just my brand of blissful dream pop. Thanks for the recommendations!
