Week Of Women: December 6-12, 2019
Now that it’s December, you have tons of entertainment options if you’re looking for a new holiday album or Christmas special – but for those who are feeling less festive, we’ve got some new recs ranging from funny to a bit more serious. Here’s what to watch out for this week. MOVIES/TV Portrait of a Lady on Fire Adèle Haenel and Noémie Merlant co-star in this stunning period film about two women in love—with a hearty serving of art theory, too.
Emily Yacina's Remember the Silver
Hear First is Talkhouse’s series of album premieres. Along with streams of upcoming albums — today’s is Emily Yacina’s Remember the Silver — we publish statements from artists and their peers about the mindsets and impressions that go into, or come out of reflection on, a record. Here, Yacina shares some words on her haunted childhood home, the metaphysical, and her new album, which you can also listen to right here.
On Youth and Growth in The Bluest Star
My familiarity with Katie Bennett’s heart project Free Cake for Every Creature is founded on years of us moving in the same spaces in Philadelphia. Her music feels like it’s been a constant in conversations and memories since I was in high school. Her latest LP, The Bluest Star, embraces youth and memories from childhood, but goes deeper by recognizing their impermanence and accepting the fleeting—like a giant metaphor for summer.

On the Cusp of Mystery and Imagination: Angel Olsen's Phases
When I was approached to review Angel Olsen’s newest record, Phases, I immediately thought I wouldn’t be able. I’ve loved Olsen’s songs since I was 14, and, given my bias, every sentence would be some sort of variation of, “This is a perfect song.” Scrolling through my Photo Booth videos from high school, I can find videos of myself singing her songs with such assurance, feeling like I wrote the words to them myself.

Rocket, by Alex G
Rocket is Philadelphia-based artist Alex G’s eighth full-length release—an assured statement that follows a slate of humble masterpieces, many of them self-recorded and self-released, stretching from 2010’s RACE to his 2015 Domino debut, Beach Music. Amid the Rocket recording process, Alex made headlines for catching the attention of Frank Ocean, who asked him to play guitar on his two 2016 albums, Endless and Blonde.
