JB's first album was released around the time of her mother's fatal bout with cancer, and it was noted for the overarching theme of grief, which she brilliantly paired with other life subjects like sexuality and heartbreak. Similarly raw, melancholic feelings are expressed on \u003ci\u003eSoft Sounds…\u003c\/i\u003e, and Michelle's pointed, autobiographical songwriting is the engine that drives the LP. However, the album covers a much wider spectrum sonically. From indie rock and lo-fi to experimental pop and shoegaze, all the elements that influenced \u003ci\u003ePsychopomp\u003c\/i\u003e are still present but done in a glossier, fuller, and more cohesive manner. Check out \"Diving Woman\" (props to the opening line — \"I wanna be a woman of regimen \/ A bride in her home state \/ A diving woman of Jeju-do\" — what a great way to incorporate her Korean roots), \"Road Head,\" \"Machinist,\" \"Boyish,\" and the title track.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eblack vinyl pressing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eprinted inner sleeve\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003edigital download included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emusic label: Dead Oceans 2017\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003ereviewed by nakaveli 07\/2017\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"gtx-trans\" style=\"position: absolute; left: 128px; top: 338.244px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"gtx-trans-icon\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Japanese Breakfast","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl LP","offer_id":57431625269579,"sku":"lp-11154","price":3.74,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/6169\/9915\/files\/japanesebreakfast-softsounds.jpg?v=1779697403","url":"https:\/\/vinylvintage.shop\/products\/japanese-breakfast-soft-sounds-from-another-planet-vinyl-lp","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
