14/BILLIE EILISH//WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?
From a home and studio in Highland Park, Los Angeles, an album was born. Two siblings, a brother and a sister, and their chaotic, and often times tender musings and reflections on the world and folks around them, sung aloud and made whole by the fully formed, ready for the world confidence and performance of the sister, 17 year old Billie. When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? is a teenage dream anchored by the astute teen narrating the euphoria and melodrama of this present day American Teenage life. Her pop is gothic. Her pop is industrial. Her pop is HEAVY, and then tenderly sung, often when you least expect it. It's ramshackle, then steady, and delightfully now. Billie & When We All Fall Asleep, Where Did We Go? arrived ready, willing, and able to conquer, and does exactly that.
