The stunning debut album from Japanese Breakfast, the solo project of Michelle Zauner (Little Big League). Written during a period of personal loss, Psychopomp transforms grief into shimmering dream pop, balancing ethereal melodies with raw, confessional lyrics. Tracks like “In Heaven” and “Heft” capture the weight of mourning, while “Everybody Wants to Love You” delivers an infectious burst of energy. Co-produced with Ned Eisenberg, Psychopomp expands Zauner’s early lo-fi recordings into lush, layered soundscapes that feel both intimate and vast. Exploring themes of love, loss, and self-discovery, the album cemented Zauner as a powerful voice in indie rock. From shoegaze-inspired swells to emotionally charged storytelling, Psychopomp is a record that lingers long after the last note fades—a must-have for fans of dream pop and introspective songwriting.
