This album is life. This and TOTL are such good companion pieces. I'm nervous and excited about what comes next from her. Hoping for a 2020 album.

TOTL can’t compare to this but I still love that one too.

Well nothing can compare to this album imo, but TOTL is a perfect follow up, it just hits a different vibe is all. Claws In Your Back is a perfect sequel to Go Home

TOTL is better but they’re 2 of the best albums ever made

Oh totally. Sprained Ankle is easily my favorite album of all time. I actually have to mentally prepare myself to listen to it because the tears be coming every time right about the time Everybody Does comes on.

I think I still prefer TOTL because of the instrumentation, but the last three songs on this is one of the best end stretches to an album I've ever heard

There's nothing I would change about it, which I think is the main thing. In the context of the album, going from "Rejoice", which is more structured, to "Vessels", which is almost stream of consciousness, to the whole album being tied together perfectly in "Go Home", especially that sample. It's thirteen minutes of perfection

Kinda wish she'd either go all out with the instrumentation or keep it stripped back like here. Or do more with the Daughter-esque """post-rock""" thing she does on Brittle Boned and Vessels.

Surprised there hasn't been much news about new songs.
