‘Appointments’, from Julien Baker’s highly antipipated second album ‘Turn Out The Lights’, is an extremely sad and poignant record. There’s such an openness and subtlety to the lyrics that the words feel like they were invented to be sung over a softly strummed electric guitar and piano.
After the brilliance 2015’s ‘Sprained Ankle’, she continues to make this particular sound her own. Her guitar and piano playing becoming so distinct that surely years from now anything that even slightly resembles it will be known simply as “the Julien Baker sound”.
Accompanied by a stunning video, ‘Appointments’ seems to tackle the difficulty of facing the mundanity of life whilst simultaneously being trailed by your demons. A perfect song to softly drift back into the beautiful, soft, dreamy world of Julien Baker’s music.
