'Older', the new album, out now! lizzymcalpine.lnk.to/OlderAlbum

this album is a real home. it’s so swollen, that’s the only way I can really describe it. like there are so many layers and I like being perched in between them. Idk yeah ha silly me

[@beeweisberger7957]

Beautifully described

[@iamafield7059]

@@beeweisberger7957 thank you appreciate you

[@sp1ralg1rl]

woah yes this is very true

[@trumpettimes4115]

perched in between them wow I love Lizzy fans

[@daniellegarlington]

Prolific

[@conormullin5122]

making music is so awkward i love it

[@DaveG207]

1:16 - That vibrato control on Erase Me (which I’m still utterly addicted to)! Lizzy is one of my favourite discoveries in years.

[@nickspedale6140]

I’m so glad this was documented. It’ll go down in history as one of the finest albums ever made 🔥

[@ciaronsmith4995]

No.

[@lunafessehaye4159]

this is one of those albums i know will sit with me for a long time. Five Seconds Flat isn’t just one of those “listen on repeat and i get sick of it”, because i don’t think i could ever get sick of it. It’s balanced, all the peace in the eye of a tornado, but the uncertainty that you may not make it out. the fact this was actually an album produced by people, is less believable to me than this being a project of nature, something found in the woods on the side of a mountain highway.

[@CatLittlepage]

This comment might make me cry it's truth

[@amyleigh9994]

GIRL HEARING YOUR VOICE IS THE BEST GIFT WE COULD EVER ASK FOR

[@Dyn_music]

The piano on Chemtrails is honestly so good, love it!! so simple yet so beautiful

[@lizzymcalpinelives]

why did i involuntarily start tearing up when lizzy started playing the orange show speedway intro? 🥲

[@LoftyAssertions]

Your producer has so much charisma, dude is a legend

[@brunacaliixto]

this made me smile so much !!!!!! i love when artists share their music making process. i love this album and seeing how all the songs came together it’s so freaking cool. something about this is so comfortable and really heartwarming, exactly like how the album feels like when you listen to it

[@lizzymcalpinelives]

can’t believe it’s been two months already of one of my favorite albums of all time !!!

[@CyclodeMusic]

The "Sounds like a Lizzy problem" was brutal

[@addisynadkins9265]

this album is actually a masterpiece i cannot explain my love for it

[@hannahphillips3243]

Ahhhhh the excitement of hearing Finneas’ part for this first time must’ve been REAL !!!

[@jazzleebert2]

The way the best music is done these days, no pretentious BS ... just people doin' it at their own pace and with fun. The sounds you guys are getting is amazing, totally up there with the legends ... congrats!

[@sp1ralg1rl]

u and philip r so funny 😭😭 also a power duo!! u guys made BANGERS! no skips on this album!!

[@strumcrystrum]

I feel the Careful Driver bit toward the end. Playing around at the edge of your registers is mad hard. I expect a full-length doc on recording Erase Me, split parts on your and Jacob's feeds.

[@margaux846]

this album is beautiful artistry and I don’t think I’ll ever stop listening 🥲

[@chinvctr]

GOD i love this album so much it’s definitely my favorite album of all time :’)) i really cant understand how lizzy managed to create all these separate songs that just resonate with me even in the most specific way. this album makes me feel so many emotions and im glad lizzy made it

[@averypickup]

not a day has passed since the release of this album that i haven't listened to it. five seconds flat my beloved

[@samaleeman]

honestly same

[@belles8359]

lizzy this is an absolute masterpiece and i couldn't imagine a more perfect video to go along with this album

[@youslyfox]

love this recording style. innovation, ideas, whatever it takes to get the proper sound... and we all know the album turned out phenomenal

[@NikaLouw]

This looks like so much fun!! Album of the year for me, 100%. I can see why with all the love and hard work that went into it.

[@giulybee6183]

I feel so much less alone seeing that even you can mess up sometimes, you could never tell since the outcome is so good. your music is unique, no other artist communicates their feelings like you do. keep going lizzy

[@akeenobumatsu]

This is beautiful, Lizzy. I am honored and grateful to witness this side of your creative process. The mac on your hand killed while recording really got me ahahaha. Your two albums are definitely top 10 in my most favorite, and Five seconds flat is on my top 5 easily. Looking forward to more

[@pulgutax]

Love you with all my soul LIZZY! 😭 THIS ALBUM IS MY ADDICTION

[@rachaelc4762]

thank you for this BTS video into the recording/production process... I am currently working on an album too and it can be frustrating and hard to stay motivated and also remember why making music was fun in the first place. I get so ADD with creative stuff

[@jonah0319]

So interesting to see this perspective as someone who’s goal is to put my music on Spotify (and I’m trying, but I’m still working out the best way to). Love you sooo much!

[@horrorfanatic1734]

Glad I found you years ago, you're gonna blow up so fast and I couldn't be more prouder!

this album helped me through a really tough period in my life (like literally came at the most perfect time) It helped me voice out thoughts I couldn’t even process and understand parts of me I didn’t know existed.
