Review
Sia’s sixth studio album, "1000 Forms of Fear," burst onto the music scene in 2014, delivering a raw and electrifying electropop experience. With themes like drug addiction and bipolar disorder, the album dives deep into heavy emotions while spotlighting Sia's mind-blowing vocal range and truly profound lyrics. It kicks off with the iconic track "Chandelier," setting an energetic and intense vibe that carries throughout the entire album.
Packed with a mix of influences like reggae and hip hop, this album is versatile yet cohesive, all thanks to Sia's mighty voice and killer songwriting. From the emotive ballads like "Big Girls Cry" and "Eye of the Needle" to the high-energy bangers like "Hostage" and "Free the Animal," each track brings something unique to the table. "Elastic Heart" sans The Weeknd and Diplo really lets Sia's voice shine against trap beats, while "Dressed in Black" wraps things up on a hauntingly beautiful note.
"1000 Forms of Fear" was celebrated by critics, earned the number one spot on the US Billboard 200, and topped charts in Australia and Canada. It's also been certified 2x platinum by the RIAA! This album truly showcases Sia's incredible talent and ability to connect on a deeply emotional level. - Melody
