Released in 2019 on Dots Per Inch Music, 2nd is a captivating sophomore effort from Brooklyn-based artist Grace Ives that quickly earned its place among the standout indie records of the year. Drawing comparisons to Suicide's stark minimalism, John Maus's synth-driven experimentalism, and the left-of-center spirit of classic indie pop, the album showcases Ives as a self-sufficient creative force — writing, performing, producing, and engineering the record herself.
Across its twelve tracks, 2nd finds Grace Ives shifting effortlessly between moods and personas, moving from giddy romanticism to brooding menace with a natural ease that keeps the listener fully engaged. Her synth work is dynamic and purposeful, bending to suit each moment while maintaining a cohesive sonic identity that feels entirely her own. It's an album that never indulges boredom, balancing electronic textures with sharp pop instincts in a way that feels genuinely fresh.
