Hannah Peel - All That Matters

Took awhile for me to get into the record as all that matters is a classic pop misdirection move. The rest of the album feels closer to the sideways pop of hukkelberg or stina nordenstam

New collaborative album Chalk Hill Blue with a poet, Will Burns:

New album on Bandcamp tomorrow apparently.

yes looking forward to it. She's a treasure.

whaaaaaaaat yes! Her last two were amazing. Hope her voice makes a return on this one

Oh, it's a live version of Chalk Hill Blue from the Barbican. I mean I was at that gig, it was incredible, but I'd psyched myself up for new material.

i'm super fucking bummed I missed that Barbican show last summer, so it'll be nice to hear this

or whenever it was, now I can't remember

Is this more like it? Assembled from a TV soundtrack.

Oh, I need to hear this! I really failed to connect with Chalk Hill Blue, and I'm curious as to her future directions.

If you can bear the thought of yet another effectively instrumental Hannah Peel album rather than a proper follow-up to Awake But Always Dreaming, her new (quite short) album Fir Wave is marvellous, very much in keeping with the more abstract and foreboding stretches of that album, and less ambient / film score than a lot of her material since then.

Seems to be a concept album about the natural world along the lines of Bjork’s Biophilia.

I don’t she’s ever going to do another record like ‘Awake’. She’s been pretty clear in interviews that she’s been there, done that, and prefers to move on.

it's extremely lovely, received my copy the other day and played it for the first time last night.

she’s been there, done that

so she's never singing again? her voice and songwriting are too good to just "move on" from

I haven't listened to anything she's done since Mary Casio for some reason, but this new one is hitting all of my buttons. Excited to explore more of her back catalog.

Surprised this hasn't been mentioned yet. Peel's singing again, and it's not what you'd expect! Absolutely gorgeous, probably my favorite music of hers since Awake But Always Dreaming.
