Gina Birch - Trouble (2025)
Trouble by Gina Birch is a fearless art-punk manifesto that flips introspection into rebellion, blending playful electronics with raw, feminist fury. Its opener, “I Thought I’d Live Forever,” addresses aging and mortality with trip-hop beats under a message of survival. The centerpiece “Causing Trouble Again” erupts as a punky rally, listing names of defiant women over growing intensity—equal parts homage and battle cry. Tracks like “Doom Monger” and “Keep to the Left” juxtapose smooth, dub-inflected grooves with biting political commentary, while “Cello Song (Tape Echo)” softens with chamber textures and emotional gravity. The album is a cinematic patchwork of moods—quirky, urgent, and profoundly personal—a declaration from an icon still pushing boundaries.
