Big Thief: U.F.O.F. (Indie Exclusive Colored Vinyl) Vinyl LP
Big Thief is vibrant new growth in the well-exploited forestĀ of the Brooklyn indie rock scene. The group is defined by the deeply personal songwriting of Adrianne Lenker, which quickly caught the ear of indie-folk incubator Saddle Creek, who releasedĀ the first two records by the groupĀ (Masterpiece and Capacity). U.F.O.F. sees themĀ finding a new home atĀ 4AD and stepping up to a more atmospheric sound. āFromā is a reworked version of a song found on Lenkerās 2018 solo effort Abysskiss, turning her simple guitar confessional into a collage of howling ambiance, her voice drifting from Joni Mitchellās heartbreaking frailty to a growl as harrowing as Post-era Bjork. Title track U.F.O.F. (The extra F stands for āfriendā) has rain-on-the-windows snares and wandering guitars, each note placed with the care of an impressionist painter. āMagic Dealerā ends the album with gentle synth pads that are quickly absorbed by abstract, otherworldly ambiance. This record is pressed on limited editionĀ translucent orange colored vinyl and comes packaged in a gatefold sleeve with printed lyrics.
