Mitski’s album Be The Cowboy is a powerful exploration of control, emotion, and loneliness. The carefully crafted songs introduce a persona of a woman in control, struggling to hold back her emotions in a world where vulnerability is seen as weakness. Lead single “Geyser” sets the tone for the album, with Mitski’s vocals standing alone in a spotlight, creating a raw and intimate atmosphere. The album delves into the complexities of being a symbol versus being a person, capturing the essence of someone on the verge of breaking free. Dead Oceans has released this captivating and emotionally charged album that showcases Mitski’s unique storytelling and musical talent.
