{"product_id":"lrain_fatigue_2025_pia","title":"Fatigue","description":"Brooklyn experimental artist L’Rain’s sophomore album is a sprawling meditation on her own tired world. Prodigiously innovative yet strangely familiar, ecstatic yet sombre, groovy and ambient, *Fatigue* is a pendulum of emotion and sound that explores the borders between joy and grief, only to discover their beautifully messy entanglement. A multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and vocalist, Taja Cheek crafts songs rooted in equal parts R\u0026B, jazz, noise, and pop, that are at once visceral and spiritual. The timing of *Fatigue*’s release is no coincidence. Collectively, we are navigating the immense, ceaseless exhaustion brought on by the pandemic, the deaths, the violence of racism, and the mountain of systemic problems standing in the way of safety and security for those who need it most. This rapid succession of events pushes our resilience to weariness. With *Fatigue*, L’Rain maps change writ large. Change is not something that happens alone; it is a group process. L’Rain clearly displays a desire for collective action that asks us to reflect and feel, admit and deny, balance and reject, consider and enact with her. To question the nature of change while being aware of weariness is to question the nature of exhaustion. *Fatigue* encourages us to listen, laugh, cry, hum, wander, realize, know, accept, and release what we are and what we can be when we allow change to be a necessary component, not an antithesis, of rest.","brand":"L'Rain","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55304434581848,"sku":null,"price":23919051.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/0184923130911_d5b41292-c537-4565-a9e2-5a83a15e2df8.jpg?v=1762357398","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en-us\/products\/lrain_fatigue_2025_pia","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
