I've been listening to this album practically non-stop this year. Be Sweet paired with a sunny day is the perfect recipe for joy, Kokomo, IN is just so Darling, Posing in Bondage sounds like the falling-in-love scene of an indie film, Tactics brings me to tears with its relatability; and everything in between maintains the A-tier indie pop. 

From the moment she began writing her new album, Japanese Breakfast’s Michelle Zauner knew that she wanted to call it Jubilee. After all, a jubilee is a celebration of the passage of time—a festival to usher in the hope of a new era in brilliant technicolor. Zauner’s first two albums garnered acclaim for the way they grappled with anguish; Psychopomp was written as her mother underwent cancer treatment, while Soft Sounds From Another Planet took the grief she held from her mother's death and used it as a conduit to explore the cosmos. Now, at the start of a new decade, Japanese Breakfast is ready to fight for happiness, an all-too-scarce resource in our seemingly crumbling world.
