    At its core, ‘Girl Violence’ is a portrayal of melodramatic love and its overwhelming possession that’s as earnest, self-indulgent and womanising as expected from the King Princess demeanour.

    The sense of freedom that comes with being unapologetically herself must be exhilarating – it’s definitely infectious.

    The callbacks to her older songs, purposeful or not, make the new material resonate even harder.

    Here, her cut-up vocals ground both the album’s tighter tracks and looser moments—the same timbre that seduces on one song is, elsewhere, exasperated or desperate.

    Conceptually distinctive album. [Nov 2025, p.103]
