Mitski Miyawaki knows how to balance fragility with aggression. “Bury Me At Makeout Creek” is emotionally draining; sometimes it pummels so unrelentingly you can’t breathe, and other times it whispers and looks away shyly. Though Bury Me At Makeout Creek is Mitski’s third LP, it’s her first since learning to play guitar (the other two are heavily orchestral), which means it translates better into the grimy basement world. But Makeout Creek isn’t a Colt 45 party album; it’s an album that nestles itself in your chest cavity and then starts to expand, crushing all your other organs. I know that doesn’t sound very nice, but it is. “First Love/Late Spring” is such a good song I want to cry every time I hear it, even if I felt really good when I started listening to it. And that means something. – LP

23-year-old Brooklyn newcomer Mitski Miyawaki releases her new album ‘Bury Me At Make Out Creek’ on November 11, an album that doesn’t flinch once detailing the brutalities of love and the fringes of insanity it pushes us towards. “One word from you and I would jump off this ledge, baby,” she pledges sternly over melancholy keyboards on woozy, last-dance-at-prom slow grind ‘First Love / Late Spring’, after yearning for “A love that falls as fast as a body from a balcony’ over noise-pop guitars on ‘Townie’. With fuzzy echoes of ‘Myra Lee’ era Cat Power, it’s a record that doesn’t tug at your heart-strings as much as it mercilessly pounds at them,
‘I Will’ is one of the album’s sweeter moments: Mitski pleading a lover “stay with me” over a slurring bass line and washy keyboards that bubble over into epic, stadium-sized synth-pop granduer as the song climaxes. .
