Waxahatchee - Saint Cloud (March 27, 2020) Album • Page 8

not comfortable calling this her best yet but I am super impressed how seamlessly she pulled off this style

 

haven't listened to any of her previous stuff... guessing it's not in this vein? where should i start?

 

can't stop listening to ruby falls

 

I would go backwards starting with her last one out in the storm. It’s a lot more alt rock / pop rock

 

thanks!

 

Since I've been listening to this non-stop since it came out and am in danger of burning it out, I should probably listen to something else for a change.

Anyone got any recommendations of similar records to this? I'm sat working from home and it's just a perfect soundtrack.

 

Lucinda Williams- Car Wheels on a Gravel Road

Adding them as I think on it

 

Not quite the same but an extremely underrated Americana record from last year

 

Cerulean Salt is the record that sounds most like this imo. I kind of think of it as a country grunge record.

 

Unsure if this is my favorite of hers yet - Cerulean Salt was a top record of the 10s for me.

 

I’ll second the Neko Case rec. Also Jenny Lewis last few albums, Julia Jacklin’s album that came out last year, Kathleen Edwards, and Tift Merrit.

edit: The Case/Lang/Veirs album is a good one too.

 

She and Whitmer Thomas are the guests on Talkhouse today!

 

it's not quite as folksy but I'm legally required to recommend Wheel by Laura Stevenson

 

I recommend Wheel to literally anyone

 

Bonny Doon is the backing band on this, and i enjoyed their most recent album! Similar laid-back Americana vibe

 

Thanks for all the recommendations, it'll keep me busy tomorrow!

 

Fire is an absolutely beautiful song.

 

The run of “Hell”-“Witches”-“War” is soooo good. Just perfect energy.

 

her falsetto in witches reminds me of liz phair for some reason

 

think hell is my favorite on here? maybe? whole thing is so consistent its hard to say

 

might have to give it to "The Eye" tbh

 

Arkadelphia is mine. Or fire.

 

What’s the worst song on here? Is it “The Eye”? That’s crazy.

 

The eye rocks so no

 

No point in deeming a worst when they’re all great
