My Method Actor

Nilüfer Yanya

This album really has 2 acts. The first half is extremely grungy showcasing tons of artistic growth. I love her exploration into post-punk and “Keep on Dancing” through “Binding” have been on repeat nonstop (shout out to “Like I Say” which is one of my most listened to tracks of 2024). Once the album slows down, it has a really hard time picking back up. The songs are beautiful, but any given track like “Call it Love” gets diluted by the surrounding ballads, which is something we’ve grown to expect out of Nilufer. Overall definitely very satisfied, but expectations will be sky high for her next record.
