With her third full-length release, ‘Erotica Veronica’, Miya Folick has crafted an album that is both haunting, spectral folk-pop and anthemic, guitar-driven power. It serves as a cathartic sonic exorcism, oscillating between melancholy and empowerment, illustrating Miya’s talent for transitioning from delicate and calm to gritty power pop. Consider the sugary opening track ‘Erotica’, which weaves between indie rock and folk; the synthpop lushness of ‘La Da Da’; or the fervent anthem ‘The Fist’. Additionally, ‘Hypergiant’ presents charming dream-pop, while ‘Love Wants Me Dead’ features Miya’s powerful vocals paired with a massive, classic rock guitar solo. This stylistic variation not only keeps the album from becoming monotonous but also underscores the depth and intricacy of Miya’s songwriting. Most importantly, the album consistently maintains a grand scale.
