Julien Baker , Little Oblivions On two standout solo albums, and as a member of the indie supergroup Boygenius , with Phoebe Bridgers and Lucy Dacus , she’s established herself as one of the leading female singer-songwriters of her generation, both for her music’s muted grandeur and lyrics that seem to dive headlong into emotional chaos.In 2019, Baker took a break from music to finish her undergraduate degree . But she’s emerged a much more proficient artist. After making her previous LPs mostly on guitar and piano, Baker recorded her latest , which she also produced, with a full band, creating a big, steely, momentous-feeling sound that’s much more pop-aware than anything else she’s done. The expansive music does nothing to dilute her lyrical directness. —Angie Martoccio STREAM THE ALBUM The Weather Station , Ignorance Canadian singer-songwriter Tamara Lindeman treats Ignorance as a breakup-record with her own dying planet, grappling with what … [Read more...] about The Best Albums of February 2021: Slowthai, Julien Baker, Aaron Lee Tasjan, the Band, and More

Mexican filmmaker's Alonso Ruizpalacios third feature, a Netflix original, premiered in competition online at the Berlin Film Festival. Despite its simple title, Mexican filmmaker Alonso Ruizpalacios’ latest feature is far from a simple shoot-'em-up cop movie. It’s more like a cop movie written by Jacques Derrida, directed with nods to Wes Anderson and Jean-Luc Godard and then remixed by Abbas Kiarostami in its efforts to tear down the fourth wall. Which is to say that this Berlinale competition premiere is not exactly a commercial venture, nor does it resemble the kinds of policiers that Netflix, which will release the film online, usually places at the top of your viewing queue. But it’s nonetheless an intriguing, completely deconstructed look at what it takes to both be a cop and to play one, especially in a place where cops are often regarded as criminals themselves.
