Album of the week: August 2 – Clairo

August 2nd 2019

IMMUNITY is the remarkably assured debut from the endlessly captivating Clairo. Co-produced by Rostam of Vampire Weekend, IMMUNITY trades the unvarnished, lo-fi authenticity of her earlier singles for a cleaner, more polished palette of plaintive pianos and quietly booming drums that blurs the lines between bedroom pop and indie rock. Infusing her debut record with the sort of confessional introspection that sounds like a whispered late-night secret, Clairo achieves all of this without sacrificing any of her natural charm. Armed with an irresistible sense of melody and her subtly devastating voice, Clairo weaves together a collection of homespun tracks about friendship, romance and the nervous energy of self-discovery during your adolescence. On IMMUNITY, Clairo completes her transformation from viral Youtube sensation to a new kind of pop star all together, staking her claim as a voice of the new generation.
