Chappell Roan – gatefold translucent green vinyl LP + 1-sided translucent green vinyl LP in – The Rise & Fall Of A Midwest Princess (Pop Star Edition). Vinyl Records London are on cloud nine, we are now spinning in a brand new copy in Cassettes & Vinyl from Chappell Roan Chappell Roan’s full-length debut, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess, is a bold and uproarious introduction, characterised by sturdy songcraft and a steely indifference to good taste. Roan, who hails from Willard, Missouri, initially found success on YouTube before securing a major label deal. Her music truly found its place and purpose at West Hollywood’s Abbey, inspiring the disco-pop anthem ‘Pink Pony Club.’ Produced with Dan Nigro, known for his work with Olivia Rodrigo, the album is rich with theatrical, wickedly funny tracks. Highlights include ‘Casual, a mix of sorrow and scorn aimed at an indifferent partner and ‘Red Wine Supernova,’ showcasing Roan’s comedic flair. Her powerful and versatile voice shines throughout, whether delivering emotional punch or playful, half-spoken lines. Roan embraces queer aesthetics and camp, crafting songs that blend catchy pop hooks with vivid, unapologetic storytelling. The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess is a celebration of youthful defiance and queer identity, marking a significant debut for Roan under Island Records. 1. “Femininomenon” 3:40 2. “Red Wine Supernova” 3:13 3. “After Midnight” 3:26 4. “Coffee” 3:26 5. “Casual” 3:50 Side 2 1. “Super Graphic Ultra Modern Girl” 3:04 2. “Hot To Go!” 3:05 3. “My Kink Is Karma” 3:41 4. “Picture You” 3:04 5. “Kaleidoscope” 3:39 Side 3 1. “Pink Pony Club” 4:17 2. “Naked In Manhattan” 3:31 3. “California” 3:18 4. “Guilty Pleasure” 3:45
