energydiluted An absolute bulldozer of raw emotion and creativity. A beautiful exploration of vulnerability in the darkest points of your life that is gut-punching, relatable and uplifting. A masterpiece through and through. Favorite track: Where Do I Go From Here?.

BikeBoy29 Listened to this on rotation. Cried through Miami, smiled through final moments of Where do I go from here? Captures the agony, personal and universal, so perfectly. Best record of 2023? Probably. But more than that - one for the ages. Favorite track: Everywhere I Go I Bring the Rain.

about

The time is now for Caroline Rose. Their last record, Superstar, was released on March 6, 2020. The record was critically acclaimed and positioned Rose as the next big breakthrough in music. Needless to say, the resulting pandemic grinded all momentum to a halt while at the same time throwing Rose’s personal life into turmoil. The result of that turmoil is the fuel that fired the creation of their latest album, The Art of Forgetting.

With The Art of Forgetting, Rose took on the dual role of writer and producer. The album encapsulates the feeling of experiencing recent memories, having them turn into old ones and then ultimately forgetting those memories altogether. There is a romantic nature within the sonic landscape of this record. Tape effects and loops emulate the feeling of aging while the juxtaposition of modern acoustic-electronic textures, like lo-fi tape next to hi-fi granular synths result in some of their most mature and honest work to date.
