Caroline Rose – The Art of Forgetting (CD)
Product Details
Caroline Rose built a devoted following through relentless touring and a shapeshifting catalog that moves from alt-country roots to sharp-edged synth-pop without ever losing its emotional core. *The Art of Forgetting* marks a significant creative threshold, the first album where Rose controls both the songwriting and production entirely, turning a period of personal upheaval into something intimate and carefully constructed. For listeners who found Rose through the live circuit, this is the record where the interior life behind those performances finally gets its full portrait.
The time is now for Caroline Rose. Their last record, Superstar, was released on March 6, 2020. The record was critically acclaimed and positioned Rose as the next big breakthrough in music. Needless to say, the resulting pandemic grinded all momentum to a halt while at the same time throwing Rose’s personal life into turmoil. The result of that turmoil is the fuel that fired the creation of their latest album, The Art of Forgetting. With The Art of Forgetting, Rose took on the dual role of writer and producer. The album encapsulates the feeling of experiencing recent memories, having them turn into old ones and then ultimately forgetting those memories altogether. There is a romantic nature within the sonic landscape of this record. Tape effects and loops emulate the feeling of aging while the juxtaposition of modern acoustic-electronic textures, like lo-fi tape next to hi-fi granular synths result in some of their most mature and honest work to date.
