My Soft Machine by Arlo Parks
My Soft Machine is an album by Arlo Parks, released in 2023. 2 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 16 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Weightless”, on 10 lists with a best position of #4.
My Soft Machine, Arlo Parks' second studio album, arrived on Transgressive Records on 26 May 2023, and it had a lot to live up to. Her debut, Collapsed in Sunbeams, had won the 2021 Mercury Prize, climbed to number three in the UK and landed her a Best New Artist nomination at the Brits.
She let the new one out in pieces. "Weightless", "Impurities", "Blades" and "Pegasus", the last a team-up with Phoebe Bridgers, all went out as singles ahead of the album, building the anticipation one song at a time. Once it was out, Parks spent much of 2023 on the road behind it.
