K is the latest album by Chicago artist Chelsea Bridge and by far her most personal and pop-oriented. This move from noise into distinct pop songwriting with pop song structures didn’t come from any dramatic shift. According to Linehan’s observations, the most punishing power electronics artist also loves the most perfect pop records. Masonna and Madonna existing in the same sonic universe. The Rita and Rita Ora. Sky Ferreira and James Ferrero. As more pop stars are starting to experiment and flirt with noise, see Rosali and Billie Eilish, noise artists flirting with pop music completes this loop. For Linehan, it was opening herself to artists like Ariana Grande’s Thank U, Next, Lana Del Ray and Jessica Lee Mayfield’s Make My Head Sing where she found not only a deeply resonant sentimentality, but also a thrilling juxtaposition of sweetness and jagged production that became a springboard for inspiration on K.
