(WITH UPDATES) Billie Eilish is only 22, but she’s never shied away from making cutting edge music.

On Wednesday night she debuted her new album, “Hit Me Hard and Soft,” at Brooklyn’s Barclay Center. Young women packed the arena, but what they got was lyrics of the new generation.

Goodbye, Taylor Swift songs about breaking up with boys. It’s a new world now.

“I could eat that girl for lunch/Yeah, she dances on my tongue/Tastes like she might be the one/And I can never get enough/I could buy her so much stuff/It’ a craving, not a crush. Yeah.

I don’t think we’ll be hearing that on top 40 radio or in the carpool with the station turned up. But who knows?

Billie said there would be no singles from the album, and now I think we know why.

In the Barclay Center, the electronic music pounded. Eilish is singing strongly, not her usual whisper. She’s loud and proud. It’s 2024.

How will these new songs be received? As Billie sings in “Skinny”:

the internet is hungry for the m?at
It’s kinda funny that somebody’s gotta feed it

Billie Eilish is serving a banquet.

The album drops tonight, at midnight. Come back then to hear everything!
