Best Ever Albums - 2,000 - 1,001 - 1,682 Big Thief - Capacity

 

I have this record on vinyl. In some ways I wish I had all of the Bug Thief albums on vinyl. Their's is one of the great journeys of modern music. I imagine it's far from finished yet. But I have to tighten my belt and I have bills to pay. I'm not retired just yet. A man of leisure as I'd like to be. I can't sit around in a rocking chair smoking a pipe. Listening to Big Thief records all day and deciding which one is my favourite. Perhaps that day will come. 

In the meantime to Capacity. Typical of their early sound and approach which was characterised by urban uneasem distress amd dysfunctionalism of the kind Dennis Lehane catalogues in his writing. Almost painful to listen to at times. But beautifully wrought.
