Lucy Dacus - Home Video (June 25, 2021) Album • Page 11

This is so surprising to me! Thumbs is one of my favorite songs she has made.

 

I personally really love Thumbs and Hot & Heavy

 

Thumbs is easily my least favorite, can’t even remember what it sounds like. But I think I prefer full band Lucy to singer/songwriter Lucy. VBS grew on me a ton and is probably my favorite now, followed by Branco and Hot & Heavy.

 

I really love noisy Lucy songs

honestly, I’m struggling to connect with a lot of new music lately thanks to some personal shit. Finding myself gravitating to music I loved in my teens and childhood - loud, cathartic, familiar music is all that’s hitting me rn!

 

That's fair!

Also, goodness, I relate so hard to that right now. I've been in an extremely similar boat these past few weeks.

 

I am sorry that you relate + hoping we pull through soon!

 

Lucy Dacus: Home Video

Welp. Lowest score they’ve given her so far, lmao.

 

Man, I'd really like to hear this record.

 

Finally home, don’t really have the energy to throw this on the turntable tonight but I’m very excited to tomorrow. The wax itself is gorgeous though

 

Jubilee also had the lowest score of the Japanese Breakfast albums haha I think I remember someone talking about it on here a year or two ago, but there’s definitely a phenomenon where once artists have put out one or two albums they’ve kinda lost their critical praise at pitchfork.

 

imagine thinking partner in crime is a misstep

 

I just RSVP'd for an album signing this weekend, have to buy the album at the store though. Really hoping they have that indie variant in stock!

 

Has this dripped anywhere yet? Can't wait to listen on vinyl

 

First listen and I really love this. Nothing blew me away quite as much as Night Shift did the first time I heard it, but the album felt remarkably consistent. Can’t wait to give it more attention later this weekend.

 

The drumming on First Time reminds me sooo much of The National

 

HOLY SHIT PARTNER IN CRIME!!! LUCY WITH THE VOCODER!!

 

Please Stay is definitely about Julien featuring Julien and it just broke me at work

 

So, Graceland Too Two?

 

Exactly what I was thinking. I couldn't hear it but if I had to guess it's the song Beans is on.

 

Partner In Crime. Yes.

 

Took off all next week from work so this release will be perfect timing!

Honestly I LOVE Hot & Heavy + Brando so I have high expectations for this.

 

Second listen and this is definitely going to land in my top ten for the year.

 

Despite it being one of prettiest records I own, I’m actually pretty disappointed with how this sounds on the turntable. Super noisy and has a lot of that distortion throughout that you normally only hear toward the end of a side. The actual tunes are nice though. About to flip to side B and so far it’s been about as mellow as the singles implied. Cartwheel has been my favorite track yet
