For fans, this edition is more than an album; it's a gateway to Martinez's vivid and thought-provoking universe, making it an indispensable addition to their musical library. I have an Audio Technica turntable and tend to take care of my records very well so it’s unfortunate it skips. Mine used to skip show and tell but i got a new player and it works perfectly, so if this is happening to you it’s most likely not the record. Notably, the album also arrives in tandem with a colorfully eye-popping short film, written and directed by Martinez, that draws inspiration from her songs. The songs from the album work well to progress a story, but are distinct enough to work by themselves if you have shuffle on.

These 4 or 5-star reviews represent the opinions of the individuals who posted them and do not reflect the views of Etsy. For example, the lyrical and dreamy "Strawberry Shortcake" is both about going through puberty and struggling with the male gaze.Produced by Michael Keenan with the exception of one song produced by Kinetics and One Love (who previously collaborated with Martinez on such hits as Dollhouse and Carousel), the album serves as a soundtrack companion to an eerily enchanting new musical film, written, directed, and starring Martinez. Just got this, and I find it so weird that others are also commenting about the skips on Class Fight as mine skips twice on that track. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.

Not only was the vinyl amazing quality, but the owner Simon was extremely fast and was able to send it on time! K-12 marks Martinez’s long anticipated follow-up to her RIAA platinum certified, 2015 debut album, Cry Baby. As with her debut album Cry Baby, K-12's music is a vibrant and singular melting pot of low-key hip-hop, soulful pop and indie-leaning electro. I own the official Extra Clutter EP vinyl and the official Dollhouse CD (the booklet cd) and there is a fairly noticable difference in quality, Not a super big thing at all, just have an eye for that sort of thing, The front of the cd is good quality though.The 103 third parties who use cookies on this service do so for their purposes of displaying and measuring personalized ads, generating audience insights, and developing and improving products.
