Her brother, the producer Finneas, has helped her create an eclectic, depressive sound, merging folk and jazz with the goth-electronic lineage of Nine Inch Nails, New Order, and Portishead. Eilish's third album boils this approach down to its slick essence, sustaining a mood of longing that is very now.
The core appeal of the album lies in its production. The ballads rustle and drift with feather-on-skin subtlety, and the uptempo tracks are appealingly minimalistic, enlivened by small, surprising choices.
