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
Everyday something makes me angry
Out of nowhere
Lose my temper
Can’t remember what happened
What are you laughing?
Convince me there’s something to lose
Describe it
What’s purpose for you
Look out of the window all the clouds are cartoons
And the sky is so blue
What’s the point in being gloomy
When there’s so much else to do
Guilty when I’m not having fun
Guilty when I get nothing done
What’s the point in being down about it
Can I move on?
So uncertain bout insert whatever applies to you
Nothing works today. Can’t recalibrate
I’ve got shit attitude
Convince me there’s something to lose
Look out of the window all the clouds are cartoons
And the sky is so blue
What’s the point in being gloomy
When there’s so much else to do
Guilty when I’m not having fun
Guilty when I get nothing done
What’s the point in being down about it
Can I move on?
I’ve been really feeling
Like my doubts are getting bigger
Like my luck is just a river
That is starting to run dry
But I don’t need no luck to make you smile
Baby can we sit here for a while
Doesn’t it feel good to feel good
Doesn’t it feel good to feel good
Feels good to feel good
Feels good to feel good
Feels good to feel good
Feel good feel good

I just started listening to this album today and am IN LOVE! Every track is perfect.
I'm slightly sad I didn't start listening to boygenius until but happy to be a fan of their music <3 lissie_a

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche. dani_bloop
