You should definitely listen to the rest of her stuff in chronological order, either reverse continuing with be the cowboy or from the beginning with lush. Lyrically, she’s played with a lot of similar themes over her career so I think if you like her writing style you’ll like them as well. But production-wise, you can definitely see her style change throughout her career. This one is by far the most synthy but they’re all pretty short and very good!!
After listening other releases, I find, that she doesn't fully realize her singing potential on Laurel Hell, but the extraordinary diversity and inventiveness of the music makes up for it. Even if not every song is completely rousing and a lot of song are maybe a bit short, Laurel Hell is an album that you can listen to over and over again without getting bored. It’s really remarkable.
i think she should definitely begin with lush
@@tiefeXzeitlos agreed.
a rly interesting thing abt mitski's music is that a lot of her music isn't about people and love but rather her relationship with music and her career as a whole
"I'm so conflicted emotionally"
me: yeah welcome to Mitski
AHHHH YOU'RE FINALLY DOING MITSKI I CAN'T WAIT FOR YOU TO LISTEN THE REST OF HER DISCOGRAPHY
YESSS I WASNT EXPECTING THIS AT ALL 😭😭😭
First Love will ruin her but i want to see that tbh 💀
Ur pfp 💕
and she never came back lol
btw mitski actually is a film major so that explains why her videos are always so intricate and well done
just so you can decide which album you’d rather go next these are kinda the genres:
lush - pretty experimental, piano ballads and one rock song
retired from sad - mostly orchestra and piano, one of my faves
bury me at makeout creek - indie rock, really good melodies and punky
puberty 2 - still punky and rock but with more synth and pop
be the cowboy - synthpop with rock influences mostly
i was not expecting this at all but i am SO HYPED. this album is pretty different to her other stuff, though she’s never had a set genre. her lyrics are the main focal point in her music (for me at least) so if you like her lyrics in this album i would absolutely love if you reacted to the rest of her stuff :)
the end of the working for the knife music video is kind of a representation of her career and the music industry, she's still happily dancing on stage even if there isn't anybody left in the audience
She always seems to have hits on every album, but then also many tracks that are not very playable casually. She’s very experimental in my opinion but mostly in her old music.
I've never heard of this artist before, but it sounds beautiful! Thank you for always introducing me to great new artists and music 💜💜
OMG IF U EVER START TO LISTEN TO HER U WILL NVR BE THE SAME SHES ANA AMZING ARTISTS
AHHHHH you NEED to listen to Be The Cowboy, it’s her best imo
i really hope she tries her other albums someday
a lot of her prior work varies in sound from more orchestral/piano projects like "Lush" and "Retired from Sad, New Career in Business" to indie rock infused projects like "Bury Me at Makeout Creek" and "Puberty 2". she infuses both of those sounds together on the album prior to laurel hell titled "Be The Cowboy" which was her breakout project :)
"I Guess" is a little insight into her albums story. She has been making music for so long and while she lives for it, it's also wrecking her. She's said in many interviews that she's getting burnt out on being famous. I think her music and gut wrenching emotion has resonated so deeply with her fans that people have been putting her on a pedestal and pigeonholing her into "sad girl music." She shared that she was going to quit music in 2019 but she had one more record on her contract. This album seems to be a reflection of her music career and its demands of her. It's a goodbye to celebrity and a hello to her authenticity. I'm so happy and excited for her but also so heartbroken.
I'm grateful to see artists open up about the truth of having to produce for capitalism and how that affects creativity and choosing to prioritize their well being and happiness.
Mitskis contract was extended, she isnt quitting music since she made 2 singles since this album. Mitski is still ongoing
@@Thatseikokin yeah she has a new album now and it's so good
omg you ought to listen to ALL OF HER DISCOGRAPHY
especially Bury Me at Makeout Creek, Puberty 2 and Be the Cowboy
it hits different
please please please continue mitski, i beg
if laurel hell made you cry just wait until lush
So raw
lush ended lives dude
You should totally listen to FKA Twigs! Magdalene is her most instrumental/ piano type album (my fav) and it’s a great place to start!!! :)
I second this! After Capri Songs came out I went back to Magdalene and it still blows me away. Both are excellence tho
I do think Caprisongs is a little more accessible maybe for a first listen but I think Magdalene is my favorite too
Please listen to more of her! Her songwriting, and beautiful ballads are so good!
you should really dive into her other music, she's definitely one of the most interesting artists out there.
Girrrlllllll yasssss!!! also you should listen to her full discography and she has a new singel out so you should listen, it's great!
if your going to listen to more mitski just remember: mitski does not have anything happy even if you think a song is happy it isn't
even “happy” isn’t happy LOL
okay but not every mitski song is sad either. usually it's kind of ambiguous, or open to interpretation. like for example, if you think "me and my husband" is a song about loneliness then it is one. if it's about being in an abusive relationship it is one. if you think it's about genuinely being happy in a relationship then it is.
@@wpbn5613 Absolutely agree! I think My Body's Made of Crushed Little Stars is just a happy and freeing song of her expressing her true emotions and Strawberry Blonde is just pure dopamine. But mabye that's just me being weird and it's just a mental breakdown song and a song about her expresing jealousy. So many ways to see these songs!
@@arnoldspirags9995 strawberry blonde is really happy until you look into the actual deeper meaning of it. that’s why the commenter said that if you think it’s happy, if probably isn’t lol
Strawberry Blonde is for POC, trying to change for the white man specifically. I usually think it as a prequel to Your Best American Girl
*red heart light* " oh cute... cute"
*switches to green* "i n t e r e s s t i n g"
MOOOREEEEEE we need more mitski reactions from you ASAP i am begging on my knees!!!!!!!!!
you should definitely listen to "be the cowboy". it's one of my favorite albums ever but actually all her discography is amazing (you'll LOVE the writing even more). :)
Yes! Be The Cowboy is a favorite of mine as well! I’m loving this new album too!
ahh you should’ve listened to one of her previous albums for your first listen, this one is pretty different and i personally think Puberty 2 is her best!
Another new artist I can listen to. Thanks for introducing me to such cool artists I never would have heard of.💜
i promise you her music is so worth it, even if you don’t feel one of her songs give it a second try you’re bound to resonate with at least one of them
@@deleted9455 yea, my favorite song so far is Love Me More! It’s great and I’m gonna keep listening cause she’s very talented
you should definitely check out her other work! her older stuff definitely isn’t for everyone, but you would definitely enjoy “bury me at makeout creak” and “be the cowboy”.
I rewatch this video so much so I can get my life support with Caitlin reacting to Mitski, PLEASE I need the other albums!
keep going on mitski's discography!!!💗
We need a Puberty 2 reaction
Please take a deep dive into her discography, you'll gonna love her experiments and chaotic energy. I also recommend Lucy Dacus' raw storytelling. Make sure to check out her discography later.
THE WAY I WAS WAITING TO SEE THE REACTION TO THE INSTRUMENTAL IN THATS OUR LAMP
some of her other stuff i have a feeling you won't like because it has some really heavy sounds/the kind of instrumentals that make you anxious. but her lyrics are always jaw dropping. a lot of her lyrics touch on what it's like to be diaspora asian-american
I think the intro to the Working for the Knife music video is a reference to her previous album, Be the Cowboy: Since this was the lead single, her taking off the cowboy hat is symbolizing the end of the previous era
I’ve discovered Weyes blood recently and I think you would love her. She’s incredibly talented and her vocals are insane. I deeply recommend Titanic Rising!!
Love that album!
I feel like she would love Goodbye, my danish sweetheart
CAITLIN BECOMING A MITSKI FAN? HELL YEAH
I have been listening to Working for the knife everyday since it has been released, it’s sooo good!
you should do her whole discography in order! her music is very sad so i have a felling u will like it haha
when you listen to I Bet On Losing Dogs on Puberty 2 you're literally gonna shatter. it's one of my favorite songs and it's one of the most painful songs i've ever heard
First verse and she'll cry. Definitely.
Mitski has an 80s Synth pop production on this album, which she doesn't have on most other songs. She chose a different path because it's her last album that she'll ever make. Love her sm
um source😟
@@uhpoopyfunny8600 her interview on rolling stone "if i remember",because she did say after her tour(cowboy like me tour) she was gonna quit music
Her haitus was her quitting music - she's verbalized it all in that rs interview.
This is her after her last show in NYC:
“It was beautiful,” Mitski says. “I performed, and I remembered how much I loved it. And I remember walking offstage, and I immediately started crying. Like, ‘What have I done?’ ”
Lucy Dacus, who opened for Mitski that night, remembers that Mitski seemed muted as she left the stage. “I asked her, ‘How do you feel?’ ” Dacus says. “The first thing she said was, ‘Oh, I’ve made a huge mistake.’ She verbalized it, and I felt a shade of terror for her.”
Essentially, Mitski is back for the forseeable future.
@@dij_on_ i would really love for this to be true, but i saw another comment about how her contract for her producing company or whatever needed one more album from her. so i think this might be it, even tho i absolutely hate the thought of that
@@graysonhubbard3979 i dont think this will be her last album! mitski has said multiple times how much she loves music, but she went on hiatus after “be the cowboy” because she felt as if she was making music for the sake of the industry, and music that she didn’t care about. she planned on quitting music, but ended up coming back with her new album, so i doubt that she would come back because of the record label/music industry considering that was the reason she quit in the first place ^^’ perhaps it’s wishful thinking, but i hope that mitski will continue to make her music for herself :)
im SO HAPPY ur finally listening to mitski :)) this reaction made me so smile so much
another artist i think you’d LOVE is kacey musgraves (listen to golden hour) her writing and the songs are so beautiful! she’s one of my fav artists
I'm stuck listening to this album for almost 4 days or something, it's so perfect
lmao you know it's a good album when you end with "nooo pls come back dont fade out"

Mitski is that. It really feels like shes doing in purpose a dance song but a sad feeling behind, its almost a joke. Love her
WHEN I TELL YOU, I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR A MITSKI REACTION FROM YOU, QUEEN, FOR A LONG TIME NOW AND IT'S HERE!!! PLEASE DO MORE OF THESE!!!
You should really listen to Mitski's Bury Me at Makeout Creek 💖🥺

I think the song ‘brand new city’ is my favourite mitski song it’s just the lyrics and tune goes so well together and it’s really good
omg you are not ready
wow, youre going to absolutely love the music video for happy
MORE MITSKI! PLEASEEEEE!
Wow wasnt expecting this, diffently one that will grow on me. I absolutely love "love me more" and "only heart breaker" You should check out Yeule's newest album Glitch Princess, it was such a surprise and I loved it.
im so happy you finally listened to mitski,just note laurel hell is very different than her other projects,but the lyrical content is still very sad :'D,i would recommend on doing lush first!!

Once you’re in, there’s no way out now. Welcome to the depression circle!!!!
You neeeeed to do a full discography reaction!
Ahhhhhh I'm so excited for this one
the last 4 songs are a total rollercoaster!
You should listen to Sky Ferreira - Night time, my time, oh god what an album
omg yes 😭😭 such a good album
OMG MITSKI ❤️❤️❤️😭😭😭😭🥺
I guess is my personal favorite song. the first time i listened to it it didn't really hit me, but on my second listen the lyirc "it's been you and me since before i was me, without you i don't know quite how to live" REALLY fell into place. as someone who lost a parent, i connected so hard to those lyrics and then when i listened to the song through that lens it BROKE me
wait till she listens to two slow dancers yall 😭😭😭😭😭
I truly agree that this album is an experience. My favorites are Should've Been Me(literally can't stop listening to that song), I Guess, Love Me More, and The Only Heartbreaker
PLS LISTEN TO HER ENTIRE DISCOGRAPHY I LOVE HER SO MUCH
Mitski is about to be your new favorite artist
We need a Allie X - Cape God (deluxe version) reaction

I REALLY enjoyed your reaction and i fully recomend u to listen to her previous work, shes an insanely good lyricist
Mitski is one of the best writers ..all her albums leaving you feeling a way

You have to check out her older albums like bury me at make out creek and puberty 2, they’re far superior imo
