    Roach is Miya Folick's clearest and most direct work yet, eschewing some of the lyrical and musical obfuscations she layered onto her 2018 debut album, Premonitions. With ear-worm melodies, heart-wrenching poetry, eclectic production and anchored by Folick's once-in-a-lifetime voice, Roach straddles a line between pop and something more experimental. She enlisted a team of collaborators who she trusted to bring out the grittier side of her artistry, including Gabe Wax (War on Drugs, Fleet Foxes), Mike Malchicoff (King Princess, Bo Burnham), Max Hershenow (MS MR) and a team of some of LA's best players. The result is an album that sounds as honest and intimate as the subject matter at hand, a candid snapshot of where she is now and what it took to get there. Matte Jacket, Printed Sleeve, Gatefold Insert.

lyrics

I haven’t felt safe since 2007
I haven’t felt safe since 2001

Pacing around my apartment
Keep my heart open
Call my friend in a cold sweat
Am I dying?

I don’t wanna be afraid of strangers or being lonely
I don’t wanna play it safe I’ll be brave. I’ll sing karaoke

I wanna smile real big
I wanna fucking live
I wanna smile real big
I wanna fucking live

I haven’t felt safe since 2007
I haven’t felt safe since 2001

I’m a little girl with a woman’s past
Never gotten used to having tits and ass
Never gotten used to living alone
I swear to god it’s gotta be unnatural

I don’t wanna be afraid of aging or gaining weight
I want to take up space
I wanna get up real early and stay up late

I wanna smile real big
I wanna fucking live
I wanna smile real big
I wanna fucking live
