Phoebe Bridgers doesn't write love songs as much as songs about the impact love can have on her life, personality, and priorities. Her fourth release and second solo album is concerned with that subject. To say she writes about heartbreak is to undersell her blue wisdom, to say she writes about pain erases all the strange joy her music emanates. This cements Phoebe Bridgers as one of the most clever, tender, and prolific songwriters of our era.
