Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz is the fifth studio album by American singer-songwriter Miley Cyrus. It was originally released independently on August 30, 2015, but was later released commercially on iTunes and other streaming platforms under RCA Records on April 10, 2017. Cyrus began planning the project in 2013 before Bangerz was released. Work continued into 2014 and 2015, when she befriended and began collaborating with the Flaming Lips. In addition to the psychedelic rock band, Cyrus worked with producers Mike Will Made It and Oren Yoel (with whom she had collaborated on Bangerz). The album features guest vocals by Big Sean (who had appeared on Bangerz), Sarah Barthel of Phantogram and Ariel Pink.

Without previous promotion, Cyrus announced that Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz was available for free online streaming when she hosted the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards, released independently. Critics were divided in their opinions of the album; some applauded Cyrus' ambition and experimentation, and others considered its production and overall finish lacking. Cyrus promoted the album with music videos for "Dooo It!", "Lighter" and "BB Talk", performances of "Karen Don't Be Sad" and "Twinkle Song" when she hosted Saturday Night Live. Additionally, she embarked on her fifth and short concert tour, the Milky Milky Milk Tour between November and December 2015.

Background and production

On my last record, everything we did was with computers. But [the Flaming Lips are] real musicians – they can change keys on a whim. I've never seen anything like it. They've had me on this journey that's greater than anything I've been on. It's really deep.

— Cyrus, describing her artistic transition during the album's production[1]

On October 4, 2013, after the release of Bangerz, Cyrus announced that she was working on a follow-up album. She said, "I'm already at a different time than I was when I finished [Bangerz]" and was so removed from daily life because of her career that "I need something to work for".[2] In an interview to The New York Times, Cyrus explained the personal evolution, including death and love as she'd never known, that led to this project. First came the killing in April 2014 of her beloved dog, Floyd, by coyotes while she was touring for Bangerz. Two weeks later, after bawling through some performances, Cyrus was hospitalized for more than a week in Kansas with a severe allergic reaction to antibiotics. There she was visited by Wayne Coyne, long one of her musical heroes, with whom she had recently begun collaborating.[3]

Cyrus befriended Coyne and his band, the Flaming Lips; they joined her for performances during her Bangerz Tour, and Cyrus recorded cover versions of the Beatles' "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" and "A Day in the Life" for the Flaming Lips' 2014 fifteenth studio album With a Little Help from My Fwends. Fascinated by their live instrumentation and its contrast with Bangerz' computerized elements, Cyrus began writing material with the Flaming Lips for her then-untitled fifth studio album in May 2014 and expected to finish it after the Bangerz Tour later that year.[4] Producer Mike Will Made It, who collaborated with Cyrus on Bangerz, hinted in July that they were working on a new project[5] and said in December that they had recorded six unfinished tracks for her record.[6] That year, Cyrus severed creative ties with producer Dr. Luke to pursue a "different direction musically",[7] and punk rock singer Kathleen Hanna offered to help her with a record "only [Cyrus is] daring enough to make".[8]

Composition

Music genres

Wayne Coyne (pictured) influenced the production of Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz.

In its early conceptual stages, Cyrus called Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz "a little psychedelic, but still in that pop world".[9] Mike Will Made It described it as "like country Lana Del Rey backed by a choir, except it's Miley pouring her heart out".[6] The album is experimental,[10] psychedelic,[11][12][13] psychedelic pop,[14][15] and psychedelic rock[16] with elements of alternative pop,[17] synth-pop,[18] art pop,[19] and space rock.[19]

Songs and lyrical content

The first half of Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz has "a healthy dose of the [Flaming Lips]' warm guitars and uniquely unsettling approach to melody"; in its second half, the band's "organic approach" is integrated with the "throbbing computer [pop]" of Mike Will Made It's production.[17] Jason Lipshutz of Billboard interpreted the album's drug and sexual references as Cyrus' way of "addressing the parents put off by her twerk-happy antics during her Bangerz run: You ain't seen nothin' yet!"[20] "Dooo It!" incorporates elements of hip hop and trap music as Cyrus sings, "Yeah, I smoke pot / yeah, I love peace / but I don't give a fuck / I ain't no hippie" in a style called reminiscent of "M.I.A.'s abrasive bravado".[18] "Karen Don't Be Sad" is a "hazy ballad" that has been described as a "lost track from Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots."[17] "The Floyd Song (Sunrise)" was written after the April 2014 death of Cyrus' dog, Floyd, while she was on the Bangerz Tour. The combination of "acoustic guitar, zapping electronics and warm synth pads" has been said to make Cyrus' vocals sound like she is "fronting a Flaming Lips cover band".[18]

Like "Karen Don't Be Sad", the acoustic "Something About Space Dude" has been compared to material from the Flaming Lips' Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots (2002).[21] In "Space Bootz", Cyrus expresses affection for a love interest who is "emotionally unavailable",[22] with a more "cosmic-pop" production and "interstellar whooshes and synths" than the lyrically similar "Something About Space Dude".[19] "Fuckin Fucked Up" is a witch house-inspired interlude before "BB Talk";[23] in "BB Talk" Cyrus expresses distaste for public displays of affection from a love interest and a desire for him to "fuck [her] so [he stops] baby talking."[22] The "swaying, stoney, piano-based" "Fweaky" describes a sexual encounter after drinking and using drugs.[22] "Bang Me Box", a "raunchy electro R&B" song, expresses an explicit desire for lesbian sex.[22][24]

Cyrus sings the tenth song, "Milky Milky Milk", in a "robotic" voice over a "wiggy synth" beat.[25][26] It shares the lyrics "I feel like a slab of butter / that is melting in the sun / oppression melts away / now that you and me are one" with the next track, "Slab of Butter (Scorpion)", which features Sarah Barthel of Phantogram.[27][28] The "'80s robo-funk" interlude "I'm So Drunk" precedes "I Forgive Yiew", with its elements of "cartoonish funk-hop."[24] "I Get So Scared" is a "soulful" number about moving on from a former love interest,[29][30] and "Lighter" combines a Cyndi Lauper-esque vocal style with "percolating '80s pop" experimentation.[24] "Tangerine" is a "spacey, acid dipped slow burner", with a verse by rapper Big Sean in the middle,[22] followed by the chime-heavy "Tiger Dreams" with Ariel Pink as a background vocalist.[15] The eighteenth track, "Evil Is But a Shadow", was compared to Portishead; when heard with "Tangerine" and "Tiger Dreams", it has "druggy" and "hypnotic" elements.[22]

In "Cyrus Skies", Cyrus sings "I’ve been alive but I’ve been a liar" in an exaggerated manner[25] over an "opulent pop" beat that "comes off like a horror movie Lana Del Rey."[15] "1 Sun" has been called a "Lady Gaga-Sky Ferreira hybrid" with an "industrial-electro-tinged" production and environmentally-conscious lyrics reminiscent of "Wake Up America" from Cyrus' second studio album, Breakout (2008).[15][24] According to Cyrus, she "passive aggressively" included "Miley Tibetan Bowlzzz" on the album as a demonstration of artistic control and independence when her team expressed concern that the album might be "too long". Her father, Billy Ray Cyrus, recorded her playing the Tibetan bowls; she "[wanted] people to listen all the way through just once, because it’s a nice story".[31] "Pablow the Blowfish" is a piano-based ballad addressing Cyrus' grief for her pet fish, with "silly" and "endearing" lyrics (including "watching my friends eat my friends ruined my appetite", referring to a sushi outing).[22] Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz closes with "Twinkle Song", inspired by the death of her friend's cat;[32] Cyrus' vocal begins in a "controlled country-ballad voice" which becomes "powerful yelling."[33]

Release

At the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards, Cyrus said that Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz (untitled at the time) "might take me five years" to finish: "I'll just work on it until I'm done". According to the singer, the album is "about music [and is] not about twerking".[9] In January 2015, Cyrus expressed her intention "to get this stuff out ASAP", adding that she was working on the album nearly every day.[34] Although Bangerz cost "a couple million" dollars to produce, Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz cost about $50,000; she said that RCA Records, her label, did not hear the final product until she completed it.[3] The album does not count towards her multi-album recording contract with the label, but RCA said: "Miley Cyrus continues to be a groundbreaking artist. She has a strong point of view regarding her art and expressed her desire to share this body of work with her fans directly. RCA Records is pleased to support Miley's unique musical vision".[3]

Cyrus mentioned that the possibility of a free album in an August 2015 Marie Claire interview, with her manager adding that the singer was "prepared to buy herself out of the label" if RCA Records did not cooperate with her plan. That month, Cyrus was reportedly working on two albums simultaneously and considered releasing her project with the Flaming Lips for free.[35] On the red carpet for the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards on August 30 (which she hosted), she said: "It's been kind of the most magical week of my life ... It feels like Christmas". Cyrus closed the show with a previously unannounced performance of "Dooo It!" with Coyne, before telling the audience that Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz was available for free online streaming.[3] Vinyl pressings of the record were announced in October 2015, but minimal were released.[36] In April 2017, the album was officially uploaded to iTunes and paid music subscription services like Apple Music and Spotify, after only being available for free on SoundCloud for almost 2 years.

Reaction

Dan Weiss of Spin found that the most interesting aspect of Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz was RCA Records' willingness to let Cyrus release the material outside her recording contract: "Before the era of the surprise free album, record companies would refuse to release an uncommercial record, or let it choke to death without promotion". According to Weiss, the label supported Cyrus' launch strategy when it determined that none of the material "was worth fighting Big Miley LLC over".[29] Chris DeVille of Stereogum said, "After a second straight year dotted by surprise drops by everyone from Drake to Death Grips to Miley Cyrus and the Flaming Lips" (after Beyoncé's self-titled fifth studio album in 2013), the practice ran the risk of becoming "standard". DeVille questioned the accuracy of the word "surprise", when the projects' existence had been extensively discussed by the media before their release.[37]

Joe Coscarelli wrote for The New York Times that, given the success and duration of her career, Cyrus earned the privilege of "[debuting] a different, decidedly noncommercial version of herself" and her "performative, post-Disney, anything-goes ethos is more than a retail strategy – it's her all-encompassing aesthetic and lifestyle". Coscarelli also stated that "whereas Bangerz saw a freshly unfettered pop renegade experimenting with her newfound power — roiling some with its hip-hop tourism and provocative visuals — the id-heavy experiments of Dead Petz reveal Miley as she exists now: aware of her position as a youth-culture spokeswoman, and openly keen on drugs, sex, animals and the environment".[3] John Mayer called the album "a masterwork of whack genius" on Twitter, praising Cyrus' demonstration that "you can be one artist one year and the next discover some crazy light inside yourself and shine it everywhere".[38] Elton John commended the singer for her unorthodox collaboration with the Flaming Lips, which he called the "spur of the moment, out of leftfield stuff ... that would have happened during the '60s".[39] Father John Misty's J. Tillman placed the album tenth on his list of ten favorite albums of 2015.[40]

Promotion

Before the announcement of Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz, Cyrus sang "Twinkle Song" at Art Basel in Miami Beach, Florida on December 7, 2014.[32] She and the Flaming Lips introduced "Tiger Dreams" during the Adult Swim upfront party at Terminal 5 in New York City on May 13, 2015.[41] After the album's release, Cyrus was the host and musical guest for the 41st-season premiere of Saturday Night Live on October 3. She and the Flaming Lips were introduced by U.S. presidential candidate Hillary Clinton for their performance of "Karen Don't Be Sad" in animal onesies; Cyrus "[stood] before the microphone wearing a blond beehive made of dreadlocks, tangled with string and sparkling things".[42][43] She soloed on "Twinkle Song" for the second performance, where she "[sat] down at a piano covered in photos of animals [and] small blue lights"; the performance ended with Cyrus "in tears [and] her voice breaking".[43] That night she announced her Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz Tour (later renamed the Milky Milky Milk Tour),[44] which visited eight North American clubs in November and December.[45] The Flaming Lips performed "Karen Don't Be Sad" and "Tiger Dreams" during an impromptu performance at the Observatory in Santa Ana, California on October 12; Wayne Coyne sang the lead vocal, explaining that Cyrus was "at home".[46]

Music videos for "Dooo It!", "Lighter" and "BB Talk" were released on August 31,[47] November 21[48] and December 11, respectively.[49] After the video premiered, "Dooo It!" and "BB Talk" charted at 60th and 86th place on the Billboard Canadian Hot 100.[50]

Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz received mixed reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz received an average score of 60 ("mixed or average reviews") based on 21 reviews.[56] According to Kyle Anderson of Entertainment Weekly, the project saw Cyrus "pulling 'a reverse Liz Phair' in that she [started] with the glossy pop stuff and [ended] up producing something as intense and naked as Exile in Guyville"; the record represented a "distillation of an artist’s soul that is both rare and wonderful".[17] Nick Levine of NME wrote that "1 Sun" and "I Get So Scared" were lyrically similar to Cyrus' earlier "Wake Up America" and "Adore You", which made the new album "[feel] like a wonderfully unexpected progression" instead of a "contrived bid for credibility".[15] Rob Sheffield called "Something About Space Dude" an album highlight in Rolling Stone, citing the line "our lips get me so wet / while I'm singing all the verses from the Tibetan Book of the Dead" from "Milky Milky Milk" as the project's best, although Cyrus attempted several "Coyne-like high notes that don't suit her lowdown voice".[55]

In a mixed review, Annie Zaleski of The A.V. Club called the 92-minute album's unrefined production a "slog to get through", although it was "commendable for its devil-may-care bravery".[24] According to Jason Lipshutz of Billboard, the album should be enjoyed "as the work of an artist who ... will not be bound to the post-teen pop stardom she inherited less than two years ago"; although portions were "unlistenable", the overall project was "messy, imperfect, provocative and entertaining".[20] In DIY, Kyle Macneill wrote that the tracks alternated between success and failure, praising Cyrus' "gigantic foam finger to industry constraints" and describing the album as "a dazzling insight into the twinkling mind of one of pop's biggest stars".[19]

Jim Faber of the New York Daily News wrote that Cyrus' vocals sounded like "they were recorded through a bong"; the album "could use a hefty dose of editing" and was "annoying to any listener".[14] According to Dan Weiss of Spin, "the total lack of unpredictability ... is what betrays Cyrus' true lack of imagination" and he raised the possibility of an "all-time backlash" she might experience if her return to the mainstream market "doesn't woo radio".[29] Sasha Geffen wrote in Consequence of Sound that the album "is a huge mess, but at least it's an honest one";[54] Pitchfork's Meaghan Garvey criticized Cyrus for releasing "the definition of a vanity project".[23] The album was ranked 10th, 25th and 42nd, respectively, on Entertainment Weekly's,[57] Time Out London's[58] and NME's lists of the best albums of 2015.[59]

Impact

"If Beyoncé's self-titled 'visual album', arriving with 17 exquisite music videos, represented the full, unbridled execution of Beyoncé's singular vision, Cyrus' record is the promising formation of one. Here is one of the boldest young pop stars identifying what she stands for, questioning everything from drugs and sexual politics to the business of the music industry and the limits of her sound"

— Nolan Feeney from Time[66]

The surprising release of Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz caused mixed reactions among critics and fans but Cyrus was praised for her movement in pursuit of her artistic freedom.[67]

Nolan Feeney from Time called the project "one of the most prominent surprise releases to drop since Beyoncé first turned her name into a verb in 2013" saying "it's hard not to think of its predecessor". The journalist continued saying: "with her Dead Petz project, Cyrus does the musical equivalent of pivoting away from the cameras' gaze in search of something more fulfilling. The songs may not satisfy listeners the same way, but the process behind them is fascinating to watch. Even when Cyrus isn't demanding our attention, she manages to hold it anyway".[66]

Hours after its release, Entertainment Weekly's Eric Renner Brown and Madison Vain wrote an article finding the "11 most outrageous moments in the album's whopping 23 tracks" by their immediate reactions.[68] On the publication's review Kyle Anderson said that "Dead Petz is a remarkable accomplishment because Cyrus appears to have grasped all of her potential at once: there are Hot 100-ready sugar bombs, psychedelic departures, rugged rock, and throbbing alt-pop that immediately makes the year's other best pop record (Carly Rae Jepsen's excellent Emotion) sound alarmingly obsolete".[17] Reviewing the album for NME, Nick Levine pointed that it "is surely the weirdest album made by a massive pop star in recent memory, but more impressively, it's also an essential listen".[15]

On her review for Pitchfork, Meaghan Garvey wrote: "In a way, Dead Petz is a fascinating milemarker of pop music in the post-album, post-Internet era: a major pop album that lands with a splash, then sinks like a brick, as ephemeral as the Tumblr culture Cyrus draws from. Maybe that’s the most visionary aspect of Dead Petz: it feels like it was built to disintegrate."[23] Writing for Consequence Of Sound, Sasha Geffen said: "if the world’s still looking — and Cyrus made sure they were looking — why not give them something to look at? Dead Petz succeeds as a spectacle, even if it collapses under the weight of its own irreverence".[54] Comparing the project with her last album, Kitty Empire from The Guardian found that "self-recording a sad, sweary, stoned album in her home studio with a shaggy 54-year-old psychedelicist presents a rather more intriguing curveball."[69]

Reappraisal

"Forgotten as quickly as it arrived, Dead Petz may also have predicted today's brisk, ephemeral post-album landscape."

— Tatiana Cirisiano of Billboard notes how the album may have influenced music [70]

Despite being negatively received by most of the public and critics when it was released, Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz has been gaining more recognition over time. In an article for Billboard, Tatiana Cirisiano pointed out that by releasing it for free online outside her multi-album contract with RCA Records, Cyrus made "a bold and potentially lethal move for any artist today, let alone a pop star in 2015". The project was recognized for "asserting that pop stars, too, should be afforded the freedom to experiment with one-offs - while they certainly can use the 'era' model if it serves their artistry best, not every release must connote the beginning of a heavily-promoted album cycle and matching persona".[71]

Dead Petz has been considered as "a predecessor of today's rule-breaking, tradition-flipping pop scene, like Lana Del Rey teasing a project called Norman Fucking Rockwell! with a single that lasts nearly 10 minutes, Billie Eilish leading a generation of streetwear-clad teens with possibly the darkest pop Top 40 has ever seen, and Ariana Grande dropping two albums [Sweetener and Thank U, Next] in six months with the swiftness and swagger of a SoundCloud rapper".[71] Through the years artists like Troye Sivan[72] and Circa Survive's Anthony Green[73] have used social media to praise the project calling it "ahead of its time". On December 16, 2021, during an interview with Lucas Gage for her podcast Best Song Ever, Charli XCX called the album "iconic" and said that Cyrus showed with it that she is a "fucking boss".[74]
