Fiona Apple Fans Have Cut Our Bolts With These Memes
Clock the tat.Pop stans launching entire Twitter putsches over a new release from their chosen idols is nothing new. Hell hath no fury like a Barb scorned. BTS Army will take over any and all trending search terms. But /r/indieheads, and Fiona Apple fans, specifically (what do we call them? Idler Wheels?) are operating on a whole other plane of existence. If you’ve noticed a whole lot of talk of bolt cutters and the act of fetching them on your timeline today, that’s because Fiona Apple just released her fifth studio album, commandingly named Fetch the Bolt Cutters. Her first album in eight years, and the first new album to score a perfect ten on Pitchfork since My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, this album drop caused the sort of flurry of ecstatic fan output normally reserved for more traditionally commercial acts. We’ve rounded up the best, funniest, and most relatable meme reactions to Apple’s new album. It’s Apple szn!
Cutters? For bolts? Groundbreaking.

— Tom Zohar (@TomZohar) April 17, 2020The level of art history here. The degrees of reiteration. The tiny little bolt cutters in the irritatin’ girls’ hands.

Fiona Apple was waiting for the entire world to descend into restless melancholic rage and then once we all started pacing our kitchens in our underwear in the middle of the night she was like, “You’re ready.”
