Let’s get one thing straight: Eleanor did not come here to whisper. Her new EP, There’s No Quiet, There’s Little Relief, is seven tracks of high-drama, heart-on-sleeve, string-drenched gorgeousness — like if Florence Welch and Fiona Apple shared a bottle of red wine and wrote a breakup opera in a haunted theater. And we mean that lovingly.
From the smoky strut of opener ‘Ghost’ to the orchestral gut-punch of ‘Stuck on Loving You’, this EP is a whole journey. You’ve got bluesy breakdowns, moody synths, full string sections, and one absolute banger of a lead single: ‘Sugar’. Funky, flirty, and unbothered in the best way, it’s Eleanor’s “hot girl making bad decisions” moment, and we’re obsessed. It’s giving HBO drama. It’s giving eyeliner at 2am.
What really makes this project sing (besides Eleanor’s stunning vocals) is how rich it sounds — like, you can hear the care that went into it. Credits include collaborators from Luxembourg to Sloeflower Studio, and they all clearly understood the assignment: make it lush, make it weird, make it feel like Eleanor is singing directly to your face while you're crying into a wine glass.
But don’t let the sad-girl aesthetic fool you — this isn’t just wallowing. There’s humor tucked into the lyrics, a wink behind the melancholy, and a sense that Eleanor knows exactly how dramatic she’s being… and she’s totally leaning into it. ‘Cold Day in Hell’ sounds like it belongs in a noir film scored by Lana Del Rey and produced by Trent Reznor. A total mood.
By the time you reach the final track — a two-part emotional swan dive called ‘Stuck on Loving You’ — you’re either texting your ex, burning a candle, or making a playlist called “Songs That Emotionally Wrecked Me (Vol. 3).” Eleanor’s EP is big, bold, and absolutely not quiet — and thank god for that.
