Courtney Barnett has included a brand new track on her Milk! Records compilation ‘Good For You‘, which is due out next month.
Originally formed simply as a vehicle for Barnett’s own music, the likes of Jen Cloher, Fraser A. Gorman, Ouch My Face and The Finks all now call Milk! home, and will also be on the new collection when it is released on February 14th.
But it’s Barnett’s ‘Three Packs a Day‘ (below) which is likely to get most people’s attention as one of the first tastes of new material since last year’s hit debut album ‘Sometimes I Sit and Think, and Sometimes I Just Sit‘ – part of Live4ever’s Best Of…2015 countdown.
“‘Sometimes I Sit..’ is one of those records which will have you grasping at thin air for comparisons, whilst itself sitting unpretentiously in the corner,” our review reads.
“This millennial generation are characterised by knowing what they don’t want, but like every other gone by, also by not knowing what they do. For Courtney Barnett this isn’t a problem; the ambiguity just turns itself into set pieces which hum with authenticity and pathos, all delivered by someone who vibes like she’s just got out of bed.”
