    well-deserved BNM but let's not act like the last two records she put out weren't just as good

    do think this is her best album though. the lyrics are undeniably sharper.

    Which 2? Alps and...?

    It’s fantastic, you already know how much Stranger’s means to me and this is already reaching similar heights. Can’t wait to live with this album, only time will tell if I enjoy this more than her debut but as of this moment it’s already looking like a favorite of the year!

    Happy you enjoyed this tho coughrmrcough

    Wasn't hot on that one tbh.

    boygenius on the other hand is GOAT-tier.

    I’m enjoying this more than my favorites, might be due to recency bias (doubt it tho)

    Savior Complex is like a Father John Misty song with Phoebe singing.

    Not only from a conceptual standpoint, but lines like ”I'm too tired / To have a pissing contest” to its last verse yuh

    Definitely, picked that up from my first listen lol so dope

    better late than never

    she also has a band project with conor oberst called better oblivion community center they dropped their s/t album last year. its worth a listen as well.

    BOCC is really nice. Thanks for this rec

    I actually put them both on back-to-back. Boygenius didn't really click for me. Felt like Phoebe kind of slipped through the cracks when I was hoping she'd have a bigger role like on BOCC

    oh yea boygenius is def more of a collective type of project.
    but if you're familiar with lucy and juliens music,it made perfect sense for them to link up...
    i really love it tho, seems to be a fan favorite as well.

    BOCC is great as well but i really want another boygenius project next.

    damn, this is a great call

    Never put the two together but Phoebe's sense of humor and ironic songwriting defiitely has shades of FJM

    No wonder I love her so much

    lmao you just wanted her to have lead vocals the whole time you should peep the albums Historian by Lucy Dacus and Sprained Ankle by Julien Baker. i bet you’ll like the EP a bit better once you’re familiar with the other two (amazing) artists.

    I'm familiar with Baker who's pretty good but thought there was too much Dacus whose voice was jarring with the other two there

    But I thought Phoebe really played a backseat to both of them. Seemed like she had fewer verses and shorter ones too
