Phoebe Bridgers’ new album, Lost Weekend, is almost here, and the reviews are trickling in. Scanning the credits, you’ll come across both longtime collaborators (Christian Lee Hutson, her boygenius bandmates Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker, and others) and some new faces (Jack Antonoff, Alex G on additional production).

Le prime note arrivano dal Marquee, dove gli Hulder spalancano le porte del secondo giorno con un black metal siderale, glaciale e profondamente rituale. Le atmosfere create dalla formazione statunitense sembrano appartenere più a un bosco avvolto dalla nebbia che a un festival baciato da un sole impietoso. È un inizio quasi straniante, perfetto per prendere lentamente confidenza con una giornata che, col passare delle ore, cambierà volto decine…
