Alice Phoebe Lou, Oblivion

The South African indie-folk songwriter’s sixth album presents her at her most intimate and creative—yet still unknowable—as she traces the lines of isolation and transition.

Bruce Springsteen, Nebraska ’82 [Expanded Edition]

With the oft-rumored electric version of Bruce’s unhappiest album as its centerpiece, this five-disc collection helps to inform the maudlin medicine that fills the songwriter’s new biopic.

The Lemonheads, Love Chant

Evan Dando finds a middle ground between nostalgia and the present with his grunge-pop outfit’s latest LP, which isn’t any less messily melancholic than the project’s early-’90s peak.
