Who knows where the time goes... you blink, rub your eyes, look around and realise to your horror that "Sometimes I Sit..." came out more than a decade ago. The slacker wit and youthful anxiety which Courtney Barnett channelled into such a brilliant and instantly iconic debut has just kinda been in a holding pattern over her last three albums to the point that "Creature of Habit" feels mostly formulaic. I like 'Sugar Plum' and 'Another Beautiful Day' but the magic has worn off now. This is just what elder millenials sound like with Alzheimer's.
