about

Digging into a past life uncovered in spiritual reading, Amulet plants one foot in the past and another in the present – set against a medieval landscape of religious tyranny against women (“Big Boy”) while showing the butterfly effect that continues to have on contemporary society (“Black Eyes”), romantic relationships (“Jade Green”), and feminine identity (“Wishing Bone”).

Written over a series of sessions in London and L.A. with long-time collaborator Dylan Neustadter, Amulet melds slacker alt rock songwriting with sharp lyricism, her sedated vocals propelled by driving bass lines, bouncy drums and washed-out guitars that land somewhere between The Breeders and the The Brian Jonestown Massacre.

Melding saccharine vocals with a cutting attitude, earworm melodies with more hard-nose influences, deeply felt emotions with songwriting so intuitive it feels almost effortless, Amulet expertly harnesses Freak Slug’s contrasts into an album that feels both incandescent and dreamlike.

This album is a great reimagining of Punisher, an already perfect album, and its only flaw for me is that its only 5 songs. lairdbookworm

Sometimes when you just come across great ear candy, you just have to stop and listen. I bought the album without listening to it all, that's how much i was invested in this new found great band. Redhead

Holy shit! Like if indie folk were also jazz. Love love love the magic rambling of instruments and visual lyrics. So tight, and so loose. Brianna Vuagniaux
