Girl in Red speaks to the modern teenage experience with ‘If I Could Make It Go Quiet’ AWAL Recordings Ltd/Courtesy Fans cannot stop screaming their praise in response to the release of the long-anticipated debut album If I Could Make It Go Quiet, from rising Norweigen artist Marie Ulven — known as Girl in Red — who cleverly blends genres to encapsulate the chaotic serenity that is coming of age as a teenager in the modern world. On her debut, Ulven speaks directly to both her abusers and lovers in a raw, intimate way, allowing for her lyrics to feel more like a diary entry or a conversation with a close friend than a mainstream indie album written for the masses. While some of the tracks veer into a musical style unflattering to Ulven’s narrative storytelling and fails to mesh cohesively with the overall tone of her LP, the record as a whole breathes like a beautifully nurtured adolescent itself, resonating with listeners in all walks of life.
