大きくハズレた感じのtracはないものの

音的には平凡な要素のほうが多いように感じたが、

高得点のところも多い。

 

 

Madi Diaz is no stranger to exploring the personal in her songwriting, and the act of processing emotions has always taken a lead role on her albums. Recorded with Andrew Sarlo, her fifth full-length, 2021's History of a Feeling, offered her rawest material yet, leading to television debuts and high-profile tours with artists including Harry Styles and Angel Olsen. On the follow-up, Weird Faith, Diaz not only continues to stare down complex feelings but shines a blue light on the dark underbelly of love, where the flaws, compromises, and insecurities lie. Recorded this time with Sam Cohen (Kevin Morby, Emily King) and Konrad Snyder (Noah Kahan, Stephen Sanchez), the album opens with the blunt and melancholy "Same Risk," in which she questions whether a new partner will carry their weight with lines like "Do you think this could ruin your life?/Cause I could see it ruining mine." That song also features a big, cellphone-flashlight-waving singalong chorus, something Diaz delivers many times over on Weird Faith.
