#HANA VU ALBUM HOW TO#
But she hums along, staying cool and coiled, teaching herself how to reset. “I guess it must be everybody’s birthday all the time.” There’s a sense of fear trembling somewhere under the catchy beat, a sadness Vu could excavate. “Everybody’s crying in the hallway,” Vu moans. The closest she comes to addressing it head-on is “Everybody’s Birthday,” a hazy song from the Lana and Lorde school of generational malaise. In Everybody’s Birthday, a single from Hana Vu’s debut album, Public Storage, the 21-year-old musician paints a lurid picture of New Year’s reflections, singing Everybody knows that. “Oh honey, I promise I’m the world’s worst lover,” Vu wails on “World’s Worst,” before murmuring, “I wonder if I get any younger than this.” It’s a winking, ironic articulation of the early-adult pain that she spends most of the record circling and dressing up in metaphor. “Here are my bruises, all my dents and my fuses,” she sings on the title track, before walking back any suggestion of vulnerability: “But I don’t really care now.”Ĭritics have compared Vu to Lana Del Rey practically since the start of her career, and there are snippets of Public Storage that recall the dark glamour and seeping melodrama of Born to Die. Instead she keeps a calculated distance, opting for intricacy over intimacy. The record doesn’t convey that personal tie, though, and while Vu makes many pretty statements about God and good and evil, she offers little about herself. Vu named the album after the massive self-storage building she lived beside when she started writing it, a structure that reminded her of the storage units she used while moving around a lot as a kid.

Listen to Nicole Kidman / Anne Hathaway by Hana Vu on Apple Music. Vu co-produced the album, which oscillates between bright coils of pop (“Keeper,” “Aubade”) and blasts of drums and guitar.
“I live in a hole in the wall/You live in a hole in my head,” she sighs on “My House.” “They’ll blow smoke straight through your face,” she lilts on “Heaven, “And you turn to dust/And you fly away.” Where Vu’s previous releases were vivid and tactile, Public Storage numbs out. Vu sings about heaven burning, about pleading with the sun, about dreaming in gold. These are opaque songs about armageddon, gesturing at morose feelings and crammed with abstract statements.
