Walker wrote the work as an elegy to his late grandmother and a testimony to her experience as an enslaved woman. Initially titled Lament, George Walker’s Lyric for Strings is an impactfully poignant piece with a notable history that continues to resonate with audiences. But despite that seismic shift in sonic direction, Moriondo continues to imbue each track with the diary-like honesty that’s earned her a global fanbase of millions, slowly revealing the immense depth of her sensitivity and creating the most gloriously uninhibited work yet from a truly one-of-a-kind artist. At turns campy and confessional, tender and explosive, SUCKERPUNCH is heralded by the sticky-sweet anthem “Fruity” and marks a bold leap forward from the understated indie-pop and jittery pop-punk of Blood Bunny, often echoing the sheer unpredictability suggested in its title. Expanding on the untamed imagination and volcanic emotionality of 2021’s Blood Bunny-a critically acclaimed album that landed on best-of-the-year lists from the likes of The New York Times-the 19-year-old Michigan native uses that whirlwind storytelling as a vessel for self-exploration, uncovering potent truths about self-image and obsession and the complexities of power.
On her new album SUCKERPUNCH, singer/songwriter Chloe Moriondo inhabits an entire cast of unruly characters: a larger-than-life vigilante who collects ill-behaved boys like figurines, a champagne-popping Barbie doll with its hair chopped off, a champion boxer stepping into the ring in a satin pink Hello Kitty robe.
