Charli XCX shouldn’t worry about anyone building statues for her critics—or this album either.

. The sense of callousness is only exacerbated by the album’s counterintuitive sequencing. “New Shapes,” a confessional anthem about coming to terms with the reality that its narrators won’t be able to meet someone’s needs, exudes climactic catharsis. Instead, it immediately follows the much more dispassionate “Crash,” throwing the listener and record off-balance.

Despite its played-out, retro synth lines, “New Shapes” uses a kinetic percussion fill to create a bigger scope than that of any following song. Presumably to prevent limiting herself to any single artistic expectation,sees Charli pivoting to her blandest palette. The remainder of the album’s track list defaults to blinkering keyboard melodies and underweight digitized rhythm sections.
