New Jacob Nico (@BifoIsou) out on Disintegration State today.
It’s an intensely personal record, and I don’t think I could do the themes justice, so this is what Jacob says about it:
Created following a protracted brush with death and the development of a series of hallucinatory disorders, Fool Season is a brutal exploration of how to live when normality becomes impossible. Further, after crashing out of daily life, Jacob discovered that they’re both autistic and trans. The body, brain and world are in constant dialogue for us to exist, but when these lines of communication break down new ways of being have to be found, else we simply float in a partially-imagined void.
Lyrically it’s extraordinary. Excoriating, honest and articulate. Musically it’s just as powerful, and runs from relatively sunny shoegaze, to droning gothic organs and eventually total abstraction and drone. It’s the sound of a person turning themselves inside out to understand who they are, and it deserves to be heard.
I’ll be listening to the Jacob Nico album above, and also Kelly Lee Owens.
Got KLO going now and I am very into it, woke up early this morning, and is perfect hazy wake state music. Going to get a lot of play over the weekend.
