On November 11th, 2hollis unveiled their fifth album, Pirouette. The singer/rapper teased the record with singles "Hurt," "Sex," and "Warhorse," hinting at an eclectic collection of music. However, Pirouette exceeds expectations, shifting between hyperpop, pop-punk, EDM, and hip-hop within its 50-minute duration.
Notably, the album features production and writing from Mk.gee, who co-produced and co-wrote the track "Human After All." The emotional journey of "Pirouette" is narrated through the eyes of a being called "One," encompassing 16 vignettes without following any chronological order. Each song delves into a distinct emotion, exploring love in its myriad forms - beautiful, desperate, destructive, and tender.
The album kicks off with the full-fledged pop-punk track "Spring (Love Me)," setting a raucous tone that continues throughout the record. Standout tracks like "Sophie" feature bright, scuzzy guitar work, while "Hurt" revisits industrial textures in a chaotic, eerie context. The album's euphoric club vibes are evident in tracks like "Heaven Speaker" and "Skin."
