Re-release of the album that revealed Lucy Dacus' songwriting talent.
This talent, already highlighted on her first album "No Burden", is reminiscent of the intensity of a Sharon Van Etten during her "Tramp" period.
She blends the raw rendering of her personal experience with sophisticated instrumentation. Like Mark Oliver Everett with Eels, her music draws its emotional impact from direct writing. Scenes of heartbreak, uncertainty, and mourning are captivating. Beyond the obvious qualities of her backing band, this accuracy is magnified by the strings and winds present on several tracks ("Addictions", "Body to Flame").
