Quick Facts Studio album by Cherry Glazerr, Released ...

You know, I don't really think about that stuff that much, honestly. I'm excited that it made the rounds and that it's being heard by more people who can connect to it. And who it can touch. All I want, as an artist, is to make things that mean something to other people. So as many people as it can reach is good for me.

—Clementine Creevy on positive critical reception for I Don't Want You Anymore[1]

Recording and release

The album was preceded by the singles "Soft Like a Flower", "Ready for You", and "Sugar".[2]

Reception

Alternative Press' Anna Zanes wrote that this album "leans further into rock than ever before, without losing touch with Creevy's emotional candidness — rather, on this album, she easily embraces the wonderfully unsettling depths of the human psyche, in real time".[3] Critics at All Songs Considered chose this as one of the five best albums of the week.[4] In Paste, Victoria Wasylak scored this album 8.3 out of 10, writing that it "successfully embodies the private suffering that precedes any semblance of healing".[5] Sophia June of Pitchfork Media scored this work a 7.1 out of 10, praising the lyrics and production, but stating that some of genre exploration fails and song in the first half "fall... flat when Creevy opts for bubbly, optimistic indie pop".[6] Prior to release, the single "Ready for You" was chosen as a Song of the Week at Under the Radar[7] and "Golden" was picked as one of the songs of the week.[8] The publication published a review by Matt the Raven scoring the album an 8.5 out of 10, summing up that it "is destined to be your new guilty pleasure as the superb vocals and ultra-cool textures of these robust and vibrant tunes creep into your consciousness and stay playing in your head long after the album is over".[9]

PopMatters ranked this the 19th best rock album of 2023.[10] At Under the Radar, this was rated the 66th best album of 2023.[11]
