Those in search of a tightly cohesive album knitted around a single concept have probably come to the wrong place entirely \u2013 but for a sprawling answer to the band\u2019s two huge 2019 breakthrough records \u2018Two Hands\u2019 and \u2018U.F.F.O\u2019, then look no further.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Lenker\u2019s last solo album came in the form of 2024\u2019s \u2018Bright Future\u2019. In a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/reviews\/album\/adrianne-lenker-bright-future-review-album-tracklist-3608167\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">four-star review of the album<\/a>, Leo Lawton wrote for\u00a0NME: \u201cIt\u2019s been a decade since Lenker first began to make her mark with her second album \u2018Hours Were The Birds\u2019, and her direction remains unclear.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever, it is precisely this dislocation which wields tremendous power on \u2018Bright Future\u2019. Much like her beatnik days on the road, this album reflects all of life\u2019s twists and turns. It\u2019s the perfect soundtrack to a long car journey spent staring out of the window, yearning for those you left behind.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Since then, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/news\/music\/adrianne-lenker-announces-massive-43-track-live-album-3855299\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">she released a massive new 43-track live album in April<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Big Thief have announced a new album \u2018Double Infinity\u2019 alongside a new single \u2018Incomprehensible\u2019.
