Description
A follow-up to her critically acclaimed 2020 LP Daughter, Nothings Gonna Stand in My Way Again continues the evolution of Loveless (she/her/they/them): a fiercely brave writer who bluntly assesses their life in song. Their trademark candidness and razor-sharp wit remain as they lay bare their raw painstruggles with alcohol and depression, a breakup with their longtime boyfriend, and uncertainty about the futurebut here Loveless voice is wiser and more controlled. And while she holds onto a vintage country heart and a heartland rock soul, this album also presents something new and matured: a sound akin to Rumors and Tusk-era Fleetwood Mac.
Nothings Gonna Stand in My Way Again (named one of Pitchforks most anticipated albums of the year) is not only a break-up record drifting back to some of the best of its kind, like Richard & Linda Thompsons Shoot Out the Lights, Superchunks Foolish and, of course, Rumors. Its also a reminder to keep improving oneself, taking ownership and moving forwardalone, if needed. Captivating and complex, its a triumphant moment from an artist whos continuing their stride.
