Lily Allen – No Shame (2018) [Qobuz FLAC 24bit/44,1kHz]

Lily Allen’s No Shame is her fourth studio album and the follow-up to 2014’s Sheezus. No Shame features the singles “Higher” and “Three” and is set for release via Parlophone/Warner Bros. Records.

No Shame is Lily Allen’s most personal, insightful and fully-formed record to date. It includes lead song “Trigger Bang” featuring Giggs, which The Guardian describes as, “a return to the melancholic pop that made her so intriguing.”

Working with collaborators Fryars, Mark Ronson, Vampire Weekend’s Ezra Koenig, Burna Boy, P2J and Cass Lowe to create No Shame, Lily says her goal was to make an album that is “as truthful as possible.” Speaking about the sense of catharsis that came with making the album, she says, “I believe that we as humans work through things by talking about them, and that’s what making music is for me. It’s sharing things that you hope are going to connect with people, not that are going to connect with algorithms.”

Sheezus, Lily Allen’s last album released in 2014, wasn’t really a success. But this didn’t really have an effect on the Brit, who has changed a lot since. Gone are the rock’n’roll black hair, the punk platinum blonde is unleashed! No Shame has a suitable name. Did Allen find her rebel side again to conceive an album centered on herself? The head up high and comfortable with herself, she triggers an emotional bomb, of which she seems rather proud. This autobiographical work tells, from a rather feminist point of view, the story of the separation of her parents, but also of her own, these painful moments after which you’ve got to bounce back. Borrowing African sounds and a hint of Auto-tune, Your Choice introduces a new Lily Allen alongside Burna Boy. You want to dance and shrug as if to say: we’re breaking up but in the end I don’t care. But reality quickly catch up with her. She is touching on Apples, on which she reveals pages from her intimacy. Lily Allen then evokes the memory of her parents’ divorce with her reedy voice on a few accords plastered with extreme simplicity. Then it’s her own she highlights with her desire to not make anyone suffer, that she immediately counters by labeling that a cliché. Twelve years ago, Lily Allen opened the way for female singers full of boldness and rage, but on No Shame, she reminds us that she is their queen. – Clara Bismuth
