Her newest LP, <em>Next Thing<\/em>, runs only 28 minutes and features 15 songs. Kline\u2019s songs feel like tiny snippets of diary entries and poems. Her minimalist approach to length doesn\u2019t actually inhibit her content as the songs are both sprawling and concise.<\/p>\n<p>The sheer quantity of releases made available on her Bandcamp page is something and they all have the same tags: blues, dog, sounds, quiet, sad, secret, stupid, and New York. This is a collection of terms that seem to fit her releases well. The songs seem to come with the embarrassed nod of a young artist.<\/p>\n<p>The topics covered on <em>Next Thing<\/em>\u00a0are often nothing less mundane than talking about her dog, but that doesn\u2019t lessen the value whatsoever. The final, standout track, \u201cO Dreaded C Town,\u201d simply discusses the negative feelings that an area can bring following the end of a relationship. Frankie Cosmos brings a unique and innovative side to what indie rock can be on a quiet scale.<br \/>\n<b><br \/>\nRecommended If You Like: Porches, Girlpool<br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Recommended Tracks: 5 (Too Dark), 9 (On The Lips), 10 (Sinister), 12 (Outside With the Cuties), 13 (Sappho), 15 (O Dreaded C Town)<br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Do Not Play: None<br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Written by Mallory McFall on 04\/21\/16 <\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From Greta Kline&#8217;s infinitely creative mind comes Frankie Cosmos umpteenth release.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11539,"featured_media":44956,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,3235,3230,181],"tags":[3976,4223,4857],"class_list":["post-44872","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music","category-music-reviews","category-new-music-rotation","category-rock-rotation","tag-frankie-cosmos","tag-mallory-mcfall","tag-next-thing"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Frankie-Cosmos-e1461210149786.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44872","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11539"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=44872"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44872\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/44956"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=44872"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=44872"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=44872"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
