Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox album Filthy Underneath is the fifth studio album by the English musician Nadine Shah, released on 23 February 2024 through EMI Records. It received acclaim from critics.
Background
The writing on the album was influenced by Shah's mother's death during the COVID-19 pandemic as well as her own substance abuse, suicide attempt and the end of her marriage.[1][2]
Critical reception
Шаблон:Music ratings Filthy Underneath received a score of 89 out of 100 on review aggregator Metacritic based on nine critics' reviews, indicating "universal acclaim".[3] Mojo called it "brilliantly executed with Shirley Bassey-like surety in an arresting, always distinctive, lyrical voice".[4] UncutШаблон:'s Daniel Dylan Wray stated that "guitars take a backseat role here and are generally utilised for adding texture and atmosphere, while synths are plentiful. Itchy, propulsive post-punk-esque rhythms are largely ditched for a more glacial and unfurling pace that gives Shah's voice room to breathe and soar".[5]
David Pollock of Record Collector described it as "a work of compelling, visceral humanity" and "a record to fall in love with".[1] The QuietusШаблон:' Amanda Farah found that it is "a strong sense of rhythm—one that has propelled Shah's catalogue—that adds a subversive infectiousness on Filthy Underneath".[2]
Will Hodgkinson of The Times praised it as "a bold and original album about her crisis years, free of self-pity and oddly uplifting", adding that "her voice... bridges the gap between Shirley Bassey and Siouxsie Sioux".[6] Writing for The Line of Best Fit, John Amen commented, "With Filthy Underneath, Shah doesn't necessarily reinvent herself, though she certainly recommits to honesty, vulnerability, and stepping out of comfort zones, all the while documenting an important self-initiation".[7]
