![]() Each shows an eye for the concrete detail that brings immediacy to her lyrics. The band members are capable singers and harmonize well. Even the two songs with slightly more energy, “$20” and “Satanist,” aren’t exactly barn burners. Maybe I’m just exhausted,” sings Bridgers. ![]() Without strong melodies, these songs exert little musical pull and instead sink into torpor. Where is the outside world?Ĭompounding this problem is the succession of slow, quiet songs that feature fingerpicked guitar and gentle harmonies. As the album progresses, it feels more and more like a stuffy room that needs its windows opened. Any songs that are not about the band members are about their lovers. Like diary entries or personal letters, the songs refer to shared experiences and make inside references. The musicians wrote many of the songs on the record for and about each other. Their lyrics focus on personal themes such as emotional attachments, and Baker has tackled difficult topics such as mental illness and addiction. Their confessional songs often feature acoustic guitar and quiet accompaniment such as strings or electronic instruments. The Recordīaker, Bridgers and Dacus established themselves individually as artists in the 2010s. One album is more artistically successful than the other, and it is worthwhile to compare the two. The other expresses fellow feeling in the face of strong social and economic pressures. These two new albums take diverging approaches. If the latter group has not necessarily enjoyed the spotlight, it has nevertheless enjoyed a loyal fan base over the years.

Who’s gon have your back and hold it down when no one is around Living in a paradox we all must grip and hold on I had to bury all my demons like the mortuary I’ll admit it, I’ll admit it, it was kind of scary There’s no need for introductions or greetings it’s old news My heart is bleeding from the pain that I put my own self through It makes a difference when you started from the bottom and just barely hit the ceiling Had to sacrifice my nights to get up on ahead I’ve been waiting for this day to play thisīeen making some changes had to get it all aligned Obstacles hang in the way of the prize together we all going to rise
