we know you meant to give it a 10, just because of their name doesn't mean you should under score the album.

Glad that underscores is doing so well. Loved Fishmonger so much

8/8 rating system confuses me but I suppose I agree Anthony

hearing the words six impala come out of fantano's mouth is so fucking awesome

I wasn't the biggest fan of Shoot to kill, Kill your Darlings, however, I think that final rush of noise is the best part of the song because it serves very important narrative purpose. The song is about convincing a close friend not to sign up for the army because it would be like throwing your life away, and ends with that close friend in a war presumably getting killed by a grenade. The ending is essentially the narrator praying for the friend's safe return as the friend's ears are ringing from the grenade explosion that they are dying from due to the shrapnel. That's why I adore the most about this record, how most of the switch-ups in the soundscape are often intertwined with something in the narrative.

He put "You don't even know who I am" under "meh" on his weekly track roundup and now it made his favorite tracks on the album
So happy it grew on him, I love that track

underscores has come so far. Since I was 10, seeing her go from edm to a full-on maximalist electronica artist is amazing!

saw her live last week and good LORDDDD hands down one of the most incredible and unique shows ive ever been to like. and just in case ur wondering what its like: i cant fit it all in one paragraph so bulletpoints
--she hired a ton of her artist friends to do full blown background visuals for each song and theyre all fucking nuts it adds so much to the "show" aspect of the whole thing
--every time she does old money bitch she makes the crowd get down during the bridge then jump up when the dance break hits and its fucking incredible (also she throws wallsocket dollar bills into the crowd while this happens which is amazing)
--she has girls like us as her encore song and right before the first chorus the screen behind her has the words "OPEN UP THE PIT" in big bold flashing letters so. im sure u can imagine how fucking nuts this ends up getting
--she turns off all the lights and brings this lantern thing out for every time she does ydekwia and every time theres a phone beep in the instrumental the lantern shuts off then lights back kinda have to experience it for urself its almost a religious experience
--every show she puts out a content warning to the crowd for when shes abt to do johnny johnny johnny which is rlly awesome and caring of her i dont think ive ever seen another artist explicitly give out cws for their own song mid show

i could add more but those r the main ones that stuck w me so uh. yeah april we fucking love u

(also forgot to add she bought jane out as a surprise guest to do her uncanny long arms verse on the chicago stop which. lowkey thank god i wasnt at that specific show bc i legit wouldve been screaming and crying and throwing up everywhere to the point of fainting)

track 2 features gabby start, who fantano shouted out w his single “synth grass” way back in 2019 in a video where diy musicians submitted music to him

I was scared for this review but I’m pleasantly surprised by the score! underscores is so incredibly underrated

The hype is so real that even resurrected Cal Chuchesta and no one is talking about that

Fishmonger is still my favorite album of the decade so far. I'm so glad you gave this a review, especially a positive one. Hopefully Underscores gets some more listeners from this. Can't wait to see her live later in the month!

fanatic_

Im literally going to see her live tomorrow, seeing you reviewing this and seeing her get the attention she deserves is awesome

jbramley

a bit sad that you didn't touch on the absolutely insane ARG/narrative aspects of this album, for me it brings the album up to a 10 and makes it one of my all time favs

callmejish

yeah this album is insane af. So catchy and sweet and sometimes just gives me goosebumps all over. I’m so glad I’m alive to hear this
