Fenne Lily: BREACH (Indie Exclusive Colored Vinyl) Vinyl LP
“Isolation is nothing new for Fenne Lily – in fact, she’s written an album of songs all about it. ‘It’s kind of like writing a letter, and leaving it in a book that you know you’ll get out when you’re sad – like a message to yourself in the future,’ she says, referring to BREACH, her Dead Oceans debut she wrote during a period of self-enforced isolation pre-COVID. It’s an expansive, diaristic, frequently sardonic record that deals with the mess and the catharsis of entering your 20s and finding peace while being alone. ‘I think this record is proof that I can be emotionally stable, even if right now I feel a little bit up and down,’ says Fenne. ‘There’s the ability to find clarity in that. It’s sobering, weirdly.’Written after a disjointed experience of touring Europe, and then spending a month alone in Berlin, the album deals largely with ‘feeling lonely. And trying to work out the difference between being alone and being lonely.’ Although its subject matter is solitude, it sounds bigger and more intricate than anything Fenne previously released. Acclaimed producer Brian Deck, who she recorded with at Chicago’s Narwhal Studios, and Steve Albini (Electrical Audio) helped flesh out her sound with vast, rich guitars. The songs that make up BREACH layer Fenne’s own experiences with what she’s learned from others.”
