Ships 3/21/25 - The new Japanese Breakfast album is an artistic statement of purpose: a mature, intricate, contemplative work that conjures the romantic thrill of a gothic novel.
Produced by Grammy Award winner Blake Mills, the record sees front-woman and songwriter Michelle Zauner pull back from the bright extroversion that defined its predecessor Jubilee to examine the darker waves that roil within.
An album of contrasts: a vulnerable record that bares it's soul as much as it revels in excess, showing just how far you can push your sound when you shake off your inhibitions.
Remastered from the original analog files, the special anniversary release sees a wealth of brand-new material, including 7 unreleased tracks from the album's multitrack sessions, mixed by Paul Humphreys.
LP Giobbi is the founder of FEMME HOUSE, a non-profit educational platform that seeks to create equitable opportunities for women and other marginalized people.
