Our Take
Our Take
If Pitchfork reviewed "Bills & Aches & Blues (40 Years of 4AD)," they might say:
This compilation album is like a time capsule of indie goodness, showcasing four decades of the iconic 4AD label. With a roster that reads like a who's who of alternative music, from Cocteau Twins to Big Thief, this collection is a must-listen for any music lover with a taste for the offbeat.
The album kicks off with a haunting rendition of 'Sugar Hiccup' by The Breeders, setting the tone for an eclectic mix of tracks that range from dreamy shoegaze to gritty post-punk. Each song is a gem in its own right, but when taken together, they form a cohesive portrait of the 4AD sound.
Highlights include a stripped-down acoustic version of 'Bluebeard' by The Lemon Twigs, a soulful cover of 'Oh Lonesome Me' by Aldous Harding, and a hypnotic remix of 'Crawl Home' by Iron & Wine. Each track is a testament to the label's commitment to pushing boundaries and championing new voices in music.
Overall, "Bills & Aches & Blues" is a musical feast for the ears that will leave you craving more. So grab a cup of tea, put on your headphones, and immerse yourself in the sonic world of 4AD. You won't be disappointed.
