The bill for the Victoria Park gig is seriously tempting: Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Patti Smith, St Vincent, Courtney Barnett

Great cover of Never Tear Us Apart
I thought we we saw her at Somerset House sheād implied she wouldnāt be back in the UK for ages. Good to see sheās still touring even if it means we canāt see her do a home town if sheās up there
Frustrating that we didnāt get the Court & Kurt tour in Australia
I thought she might be a big chance for Splendour, but the US dates rule out that idea

way to go Courtney - great album!!
Rare that I love something this much on first listen. Sheās got an absolutely incredible knack for an earworm hook and obviously a great lyricist.

Two listens in and this is fully delivering. The first half in particular is just sensational, Charity is SUCH a jam

Iām off to see her for the first time next weekend, really looking forward to it. Added bonus of it being at the barras!

I like āCity Looks Prettyā a lot more than any other solo songs Iāve heard from her.
Notice the āsoloā caveat. I quite liked some of her collaboration with Kurt Vile, but the style is so different itās like the proverbial apples and oranges.
Completely in love with her at the moment. Seeing her, albeit at the scummy Bristol academy in a few weeks. V excited
Just watched her biggest weekend set, properly great.

really liking the new album.
didnāt really get into the Kurt Vile one, and the little non-album singles sheās dropped over the last couple of years hadnāt grabbed me in the same way as previous stuff so i was a little bit worried in case sheād lost it already. first half of this album is some of her best work yet though. second half feels less essential but still enjoyable.

Feels kind of odd when I find myself singing along to the chorus of Nameless Faceless, but it is a pretty catchy song.
The album is great, especially the first half.
Thatās pretty much what I was going to write word for word. I was expecting a pretty big let down after really not enjoying the Kurt Vile collaboration but it ended up being a nice surprise for me. The first half is fantastic, thereās a real sense of dread / sadness behind it.
