Julien Baker - Little Oblivions (February 26, 2021; Matador) Album • Page 37

Wait, this is awkward. Did we all send ours to Kevin's parents' house?

 

I didn't even order one and I just received a notification that it's going to Kevin's parents house.

 

I wish I would have pre-ordered this.

I want to listen now!!!

 

Whoa. Sorry y’all, but USPS in my home town is pretty much the worst. My bet is that they lose all of our packages and we have to just give Julien more of our money to buy another pressing.

 

Mine arrived this morning! Kinda bummed there isn’t a download card because I really wanna listen to it on my hour drive to get a vaccine lol

 

Is this gonna stream this week anywhere? Is that even a thing anymore?

 

That generally isn't a thing anymore unfortunately!

 

However...you can get access to another new song early

 

Not true. My tears are streaming regularly

 

Out for delivery!

 

NPR listening party on Friday with a conversation between Julien and Mackenzie Scott (Torres)!

Julien Baker Will Join NPR Music's Listening Party For 'Little Oblivions'

 

I think that the one point of trouble I kind of have with this is that it has trouble settling into a flow—the first four songs (all amazing on their own) feel a little disconnected/staccato and don't feel like they're building on each other. after that section though, it really starts to click. the last four songs in particular feel like a powerful statement all together

 

The New Era of Julien Baker

 

Really loved this one: Julien Baker’s Songs of Addiction and Redemption

 

There’s that wave of press!

 

This came early...

 

Mailer was absolutely destroyed, but record and sleeve are in tact and in mint condition!

 

god “Bloodshot” is so good

 

There is a bonus track titled "Guthrie" on Japanese editions of the album.

 

yay

 

Shipment label was just created! (6131)

 

This makes me want to buy the Japanese import version of the CD. I can't help myself. It's a problem.

 

Does anyone know why the Japanese version of albums have exclusive bonus tracks like that? I notice it a lot and I don't really understand it.
