Ferreira Sky – Night Time, My Time (Love in Stereo Iridescent Green Vinyl)

Night Time, My Time is the debut studio album by Sky Ferreira, released in 2013. It marks a shift from her earlier pop ambitions toward a darker, more raw sound. The record blends synth-pop, indie rock, post-punk and darkwave, with lyrics that explore identity, rebellion, alienation, and vulnerability. Ferreira’s vocals are often direct and unvarnished—she alternates between whispered confession and full-throated intensity, making the emotional stakes feel immediate.

Across songs like “Everything Is Embarrassing,” “You’re Not the One,” “Sad Dream,” and the explosive title track, the album balances moody textures and synth wash with taut songwriting and sudden jolts of rock energy. The production reinforces that tension—with sharp percussion, distorted guitars, and shimmering ambient passages—giving the album an edge that aligns with its lyrical moodiness. Over time it’s been regarded as a cult favourite, one that captures a particular moment of pop turned inward and edgy.
