A review by joemacare
Total Mood Killer by Niina Pollari, Merritt K.

5.0

Structured like a good album. Side A collects merritt k's short hit singles, by turns witty and yearning, always deeply empathic. Side A is Niina Pollari's equally relatable and resonant modern epic "Golden Age." Between them they capture so much of what it feels like to live in this strange current moment and place, North America at the start of the 21st century and the collapse of everything: hyperconnected and lonely, relatively wealthy and precarious, full of self-knowledge but lost.
