Lily Allen’s West End Girl may be a heartbreak-heavy divorce album, but there’s so much to love about it. First, she’s back after seven years with the kind of brutally honest, unfiltered lyricism that The Guardian called a “gobsmacking autopsy of marital betrayal.” And second, photographer-director Charlie Denis wraps that emotional weather into a suite of short-form visualisers that feel part confession, part cinematic trance. Compulsive viewing. Here are a few of our favourites: the nun-in-stilettos surrealism of Pussy Palace, the slow-burn reckoning of Madeline, the cold-light panic of Tennis, and the quiet, beautiful introspection of Ruminating. You can watch all the visualisers on Lily Allen’s official YouTube channel.
