NEPENTHE

NEPENTHE

Julianna Barwick's art is equal parts force and beauty. Her music finds its motor in significant events in her own life, but they are abstracted into a sense of sonic wonderment, a radiance that you could say is her signature sound. That radiance has been taken to new zeniths with <i>Nepenthe</i>, her third full-length album, which was recorded in Reykjavík, Iceland, in the dark cold days of February.
