JULIEN BAKER - 'LITTLE OBLIVIONS'
By 2021, six years after her breakthrough debut 'Sprained Ankle', Julien Baker had established herself as a talented storyteller. On her third album 'Little Oblivions', she delivers one of the best indie rock records in recent history. She opens the album with a sucker punch of a verse, 'Blackout on a weekday/Is there something that I'm trying to avoid? Start asking for forgiveness in advance/For all the future things I will destroy'. The 42-minute album that follows is sonically and lyrically rich, showcasing as she sings on 'Bloodshot' that 'There is no glory in love, only the gore of our hearts'.
