In the End It Always Does

by The Japanese House

johnmahlon If one album defined 2023 for my wife and I, its this one. We've put many miles on our car with this album playing. The album is a dreamy wind-up music box with some absolute bangers along with intensely emotional and introspective lyrics. Favorite track: Indexical reminder of a morning well spent.

Michael Upton (Jet Jaguar) A quieter but ultimately even better album than Good At Falling. I'm glad there's still a bunch of lively electronic noises and quirky flourishes, but they sit in balance with some less touched-up performances that really hit home on a relisten. Favorite track: Indexical reminder of a morning well spent.

justplainscott So much of this album is amazing but the happiest bop has gotta be this one. Favorite track: Touching Yourself.

about

Critically acclaimed artist The Japanese House has released her long awaited sophomore album 'In the End It Always Does' out now!

Featuring recent single ‘Boyhood’, much of the album lives in the contradictory: beginnings and endings, obsession, and mundanity, falling in love and falling apart. Four years after her widely celebrated debut Good at Falling, this album sees Bain lean even further into the pop realm whilst elevating her signature sound.

Alvvays has always been great, but with this album they took it to the next level. Every one of these songs is lodged in my brain now, permanently (in a good way). s. moxley

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche. dani_bloop
