Allie X - CollXtion II review by Silver_Castle - Album of The Year Allie X’s CollXtion II is more than an album

7. Downtown

If CollXtion I introduced Allie X as synth-pop’s mysterious, wounded heroine, CollXtion II finds her sharpening her claws. The 2017 album—technically her debut full-length but treated as the second installment of the CollXtion series—is a tighter, more aggressive work. It retains her signature blend of 80s neon nostalgia and melancholic lyricism, but pushes the production into darker, more industrial territory.
