About this item

The trails that Brooklyn's Big Thief -- Adrianne Lenker (guitar, vocals) , Buck Meek (guitar) , Max Oleartchik (bass) , and James Krivchenia (drums) -- take us down on Capacity, are overgrown with the wilderness of pumping souls. After last year's stunning Masterpiece, Capacity was recorded in a snowy winter nest in upstate New York at Outlier Studio with producer Andrew Sarlo. The album jumps right into lives marked up and nipped in surprisingly swift fashion. They are peopled and unpeopled, spooked and soothed, regenerating back into a state where they can once again be vulnerable. Lenker's songs introduce us to a gallery of multifacted women and deal with the complicated matters of identity - at once dangerous and curious, though never unbelievable.
