This is the first album I found that really spoke to me as a young fem.
From the simplicity, the bass drum, specifically in landfill is so steady and soothing. I love landfill because it perfectly portrays trauma bonds, sexual or romantic relationships rooted in power imbalance. Being led on, unrequited love, constantly being clueless if someone is a real friend, or a lover. Are they yours or are they ruthlessly rogue. Untameable. Love and hate are such similar feelings, and they often mingle. clementinehatepageichangedmymind

Can't decide between Mountains or Wake Me as my favorite track - Not that I don't like the rest, these 2 tracks just have a special meaning for me.
I use Wake Me as my alarm tone for the last two years, the gentle use of bird sounds in this track is soothing, the beginning is like a morning out in the woods.
Mountains is what got me into Message To Bears initially, due to it's stunning usage in Life Is Strange. Attreides

Julien Baker is an acquired taste - assuming of course you’ve acquired great taste in singer songwriters… beautiful, devastating, honest, insightful… I’ve not heard a single song of hers that hasn’t left me in absolute awe. crisbroadhurst

Hannah, many people also suffer with depression, whether clinical, or hardship/circumstance related, and it is not addressed enough honestly. You took the pain inside and did vocal and instrumental alchemy to turn it into an endless source of gold for us all. Your emotion is so tangible this music gets me every time. But I promise when the tears occasionally come out, they are tears of joy. Thank you to all who supported this work of love, I love you all for it. dontmasktruth
