Sparkling jewel of sadness is one of the immediate highlights from Sophie Allison’s new album

is at its most powerful when Allison goes back to the fundamentals that first set her apart.

Take “Royal Screw Up,” the sparkling jewel of sadness that crowns the album’s depression-themed first third. The first two minutes are just Allison’s voice and an acoustic guitar, laying out her deepest insecurities without flinching: “I am a liar,” she begins, and it goes on from there.

This time, the arrangement grows to include an understated string section and subtle canned applause, but the song’s magic is in that melody. Think for a second about the level of songwriterly focus it takes to turn out something like “Royal Screw Up” in 20 minutes, as she’s she did. “I am fake-it-til-you-make-it in a can,” Allison sings — a self-deprecating jab that might well be how she feels sometimes, but one that’s flat-out absurd in the context of a song this unfakeably real and true.
