Going from the absolute barest of bare with her first album all the way to this while making it look effortless...
Holy shit she's so good
3/3 in "wow, that's pretty" from the singles. Looking forward to this one big time
I like telling anyone who'll listen that Cristin and I did theater together back in high school, and you could tell even as a teenager that she was just Different from the rest of us in the best way. She played Eponine when we did Les Mis and it was truly like a pro on a HS stage. Glad she's getting more singing out there
Happy new year, you rascals
I'm still mad at the lyrics Matt Berninger was given to work with
Getting pretty strong Department of Eagles vibes from "One More Afternoon" and "On the Page," which is not I thing I think I expected to say about Maggie Rogers songs
Beans when I run a music festival, I'm hiring you to book

As always, a big chunk of this list has albums I never would've listened to were it not for SG writers and commenters. Thanks for keeping me fresh
Love this album, love this band, love listening to music and feeling good
8 (circle) always struck me as a song that wouldn't be possible without Beth/Rest coming before it, and it has just the right remastering tweaks to the drama & emotion knobs. I'm sad to see it missed this cut but it's hard to argue with the ones that made it
Early suds? I guess it's time to crack open an ice cold bev
I realize TNOCS and classic 'Gum don't cross streams very often but I just wanted to pop in to say one thing:
In a day or twoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
And from her Bandcamp: "It also marks a sonic shift, with the songwriter's intimate piano and guitar arrangements newly enriched by bass, drums, keyboards, banjo, and mandolin with nearly all of the instruments performed by Baker"
Julien Baker, But With Drums is as strong a tag line as you can write for me
Never in a million years would've thought to pair these two, but the original Love's Refrain is breathtaking and Julie Byrne is captivating so it turns out to be a pretty easy sell!
Always a good sign for the artist when a piece on their new music has to justify its own existence in the first couple sentences, and definitely an even better sign when one of those sentences still plainly says how bad it is
Middle School Me thought the chorus of Falls Apart was the most massive thing I'd ever heard
Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!
