Floating is complicated. It can symbolize success, as a cream rises to the top. It can boast of achievements and richness, paired with a feathery effortlessness. To float on air, to live a sublime existence. Biitchseat finds themselves riding through the peaks and valleys of emotional waves as they explore new depths in their sophomore album, Float. An album that is about how every aspect of what it means to be alive is simultaneously so hollow and so very full, and the beauty that resides in between. As the album finds it's second act, Blackberries and Cherry Cola initially serenades the listener with tales of coping with the isolation of the current world, before eventually the feelings of inescapable containment explode with the synthesis of "outdoors just keeps sending me inward more." Through their unabashed pop and shimmer, Biitchseat takes the aesthetic of 90s alt-rock favorites like Liz Phair and The Breeders and re-engineers it to be as catchy as it is complex and timeless. Their music builds a stage for their lyrics to thoughtfully lay bare the many anxieties and discomforts faced by the modern 20-something. Will it float?
