A new song by Little Big League offshoot Japanese Breakfast.
Michelle Zauner — Little Big League's drumkit-crashing frontwoman — recently dropped a solo album under the name Japanese Breakfast. The album's called Where Is My Great Big Feeling, and it's super dreamy and lo-fi. "Pure Handjob" is the quasi-title track and not really as dirty as you might think (but still a little dirty). I like how she seems to run out of room for a few connecting thoughts and words, despite the low-speed tempo. I like a puzzler. For the origins of these and other great songs, check out Song A Day for a Week.
I post these little slideshows when nobody's looking. 1, 2, 3.
