It’s what brings together the depressive homebodies in “Halloween,” the dreamworld romance of “Garden Song,” and the country travelogue of “Graceland Too,” one of her greatest songs yet. Bridgers, která se podílela i na produkci EP boygenius a alba Better Oblivion Community Center, na nových písních opět spolupracovala s Tony Bergem a Ethanem Gruskou, stejně jako v případě alba Stranger In The Alps. Comment if you know any other variants, pressing information or purchasing options for other countries. Bridgers je pozoruhodný talent i umělkyně, která se k sobě a své raketové hudební kariéře chová s dostatečným humorem. Punisher is a masterclass in songwriting, vulnerability and transcending the restrictions of 'genre', solidifying her position as one of the most important and exciting artists around.

The volume seems a little low but when cranked up a bit more the dynamics seem good enough to my old ears! Ve studiu se k nim připojili jejich blízcí hudební přátelé - včetně Bridgerovy kapely ve složení Marshall Vore (bicí), Harrison Whitford (kytara), Emily Restas (baskytara) a Nick White (klavír), dále vystoupili Conor Oberst ("Halloween", "I Know The End"), Lucy Dacus ("Graceland Too", "I Know The End"), Julien Baker ("Graceland Too", "I Know The End"), Blake Mills ("Halloween", "Savior Complex" a "I Know The End"), Jenny Lee Lindberg ("Kyoto", "ICU"), Christian Lee Hutson ("Garden Song", "Halloween", "Savior Complex", "I Know The End"), Nick Zinner ("I Know The End"), legendární bubeník Jim Keltner ("Halloween" a "Savior Complex") a Nathaniel Walcott z Bright Eyes na trubku ("Kyoto" a "I Know The End"). You can sense Bridgers building a community through her work, and it’s evident in Punisher’s credits list, featuring her tour manager (Jeroen Vrijhoef, the deep voice in “Garden Song”) and her bandmates in other projects ( Conor Oberst from Better Oblivion Community Center, Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker from Boygenius). Album bylo kritikou přijato kladně, mnozí chválí Bridgersové silný vokál a její skladatelské schopnosti.Punisher’s first single, “ Garden Song,” is a marvel not only for how seamlessly its lyrics bind fantasies and nightmares, burning houses and blooming flowers, but also for how each element of its slyly psychedelic arrangement travels along with her words.

This is one of the noisiest records that I’ve purchased all year, even after two ultrasonic cleanings each on a double cycle. Her songs can be autobiographical—2017’s “Motion Sickness” bluntly described an emotionally abusive relationship with a since-spurned, one-time mentor—but her writing is too self-aware and wide-ranging to feel confessional.The material on this site may not be reproduced, distributed, transmitted, cached or otherwise used, except with the prior written permission of Condé Nast. And in “ Kyoto,” she undercuts a breezy horn section and her most festival-ready chorus by refusing to play along: “I’m a liar,” she sings in its closing line, holding out the syllables so she can’t be misunderstood.

Across the song’s two halves, she tethers the anxiety of leaving home to a vivid depiction of an actual apocalypse: lightning crashes, fire rises, people scream. Backed by piano and occasional waves of digital vocal harmony, she contemplates the facts of Smith’s life: the house where he died, his kindness toward fans, the way his songs still bring people together. Phoebe Bridgers 'Punisher' LP includes a 24-page illustrated lyric booklet and a digital download card. The fingerpicked riff is played on a guitar that seems to be dissolving; a low, male voice comes in like a record playing at the wrong speed; a steady pulse seems to rise from somewhere deep in your headphones. Punisher je rockové album a Bridgersová uvedla, že je inspirováno kapelami Pixies, Weezer a Nirvana.Whether it’s writing tweets or songs, Bridgers’s singular talent lies in bringing fierce curiosity to slimy and painful things, interrogating them until they yield up answers that are beautiful and absurd, or faithfully reporting the reality that, sometimes, they are neither. Phoebe Bridgers wrote her first song at age 11, spent her adolescence at open mic nights, and busked through her teenage years at farmers markets in her native Los Angeles.

Bridgers pulls together a formidable crew of guests, including the Julien Baker, Lucy Dacus, Christian Lee Hutson and Conor Oberst as well as Nathaniel Walcott (of Bright Eyes), Nick Zinner (of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs), Jenny Lee Lindberg (of Warpaint), Blake Mills and Jim Keltner as well as her longtime bandmates Marshall Vore (drums), Harrison Whitford (guitar), Emily Retsas (bass) and Nick White (keys).Chinese Satellite,” buoyed by a rushing string arrangement, finds her adrift, desperate for a sign, singing the “same three songs over and over.
