Sasha Alex Sloan released her new album I Blame The World on Friday, and it's definitely one of the week's highlights.

Granted, Friday was a busy release day, but Sloan's record shouldn't be ignored, as the singer skillfully direct feelings of sadness, frustration, doubt and anxiety into a whirl of poignant, shimmering pop. 

“This album was written while I was in a dark place," says Sloan. "I started looking more outward than inward and that’s where the theme of the album stems from. I wanted to express how I was feeling lyrically, while sonically creating a landscape that felt fun.”
