Courtney Barnett, Creature of Habit
Still flatliningly deadpan, the Australian songwriter uses the back-and-forth fear of the new as a start point for further depth-diving and confession on her fourth solo album.
The Twilight Sad, It’s the Long Goodbye
The sixth album from the Scottish proponents of existential angst is centered around the intertwining duality of death and life, fueled in turn by feelings of despair, disbelief, and defiance.
deary, Birding
Sounding like a band well into their second decade of existence, the London-based dream-pop trio stretch each song on their debut without ever letting them overstay their welcome.
