View albumIt is fashionable nowadays to call Billie Eilish the hope of pop music. Her entire instrumentation consists of her behind the microphone and her brother-multi-instrumentalist Finneas O'Connell, responsible for performing all the music. Billie (who fully sounds like Billie Eilish Pirate Baird O'Connell) is currently 17, her brother is 4 years older than her. 3 years ago they began to engage in self-production on various popular internet resources. During this time, 1 EP (US#14 UK#12) and 4 singles were released. The popularity gained by these releases allowed for the collection of a record 800,000 pre-orders for the debut album on iTunes. By the way, she has already managed to write the title tracks for both seasons of the "13 Reasons Why" series (I advise you to limit yourself to the excellent first). All compositions of the album were written without outside help only by Finneas and Eilish. So it is such a home pop - currently a phenomenon unique in its own way. I have said many times that dance music should be listened to at dances. And a lot of pop music relates to exactly that. But luckily Eilish is not about that. Undoubtedly this is pop music, but without boundaries and restrictions, though maybe I will surprise someone, but also without innovations, rather with the popularization of the underground. If without any clever terms, then we have indie-pop.

Here is what impressed me (some of the singles will be here too): Top one - All the good girls go to Hell - its components - minimalism, alternative pop, memorable chorus. Bad guy - there are very few sounds here, but at the same time, there is a body to the composition. It is pleasing that the family does not drag it out, but saturates the album with a fairly large number of not long sketches, and Billie's whispering vocals should please ASMR fans. The best of the non-top - Bury a friend - low-beats laid over the melody of classic pop songs, starting from the British Invasion to modern R'n'B.
