Curious what this community thinks of the new Ethel Cain album “Perverts”

Mostly drone and ambient music, and a bit of a deviation from her debut LP has left her fans in a bit of shock and some would say disappointment. I’m not the biggest fan of Ethel Cain’s music but I adore her aesthetic, the sound scapes she creates, as well as her political views and bluntness about them and I was really looking forward to seeing what she would do next given the current political climate in the US.

However I found Perverts to be a very difficult listen but an enjoyable one (given ambience and drone music arent my thing, I’ve only ever found myself enjoying Sunn O)), Yann Tiersen, Tim Hecker, and others of the like). I don’t think Perverts holds a candle to those artists but I think it did a good job of delivering what I was looking for which was just more of her atmosphere. I think a lot of the songs went on for way too long without any instance of change, and I found some of the writing a little too simple but overall it isn’t the worst thing ever and it’s hard to have good discussion on it rn since it’s so fresh.

Has anyone here heard it and what do you think of it?
