Who is Frankie Cosmos? A poem, a pinch of sunshine, a childlike voice and a pseudonym, all bundled up with simple and joyful dream pop music. Greta Kline’s solo project is her main outlet: she’s published 10 albums, and as many EPs since 2012, independently or with the support of different record labels more recently. The prolific New Yorker’s latest, Close It Quietly, is her second record with Sub Pop; it largely follows in the tracks of Vessel (2018). Producer Gabriel Wax (Deerhunter, The War On Drugs, Wye Oak) brings a noticeable change to the sonic picture though: the band sounds tighter, with much better dynamics. Lyrically, Kline is still on the path of introspection and thinly veiled self-loathing, grappling with romance, her antisocial tendencies and trademark millennial depression; it’s a record about being in your mid-twenties and wondering what the **** am I going to do with my life? Although Close It Quietly doesn’t take many risks, it leaves a favorable impression on the vast majority of points – solid writing, arrangements, performances and production make this an enjoyable, if hardly standout, listen. © Alexis Renaudat/Qobuz
