Albums Out Today: Good Morning, Juice WRLD, Mark Barrott, Juanita Stein, and More

    In this segment, we showcase the most notable albums out each week. Here are the albums out on November 29, 2024:


    Good Morning, The Accident

    Australian duo Good Morning have released their eighth album, The Accident. Liam Parsons and Stefan Blair tracked instrumentals in Greece last August, while lyrics and mixing took place in Joshua Tree in November, and final touches were added at Melbourne’s York Street Recorders in February. “We’re not really fighters (we’re way too passive for that), but given that we’re making a new record at the same time as already getting sick of thinking about the old one, an air of burn out and band related bum out seems to find its way into much of the lyrics,” they explained. “For the first time in a long time, there is no new Good Morning record being worked on as this one is coming out, and no plans to tour.”


    Juice WRLD, The Party Never Ends

    The Party Never Ends, which is billed as Juice WRLD’s final posthumous album, has arrived. It boasts guest appearances from Eminem, Fall Out Boy, the Kid Laroi, Benny Blanco, and Nicki Minaj. The rapper’s state shared a trailer for the LP starring actor Eric Roberts, who plays the role of a grandfather who tells his grandchildren about “the legend of Juice WRLD.” “I went to all the concerts. I listened to every project and freestyle, but the last album — it was really worth the wait,” Roberts said in the Steve Cannon-directed clip.


    Mark Barrott, Everything Changes, Nothing Ends

    British producer Mark Barrott has released a new album, Everything Changes, Nothing Ends, via Reflections. The orchestral ambient record is dedicated to the artist’s late partner, Sara Kult-Smith, following her death last year. In a statement, Barrot called it “the story of how life can change and be snatched away in the blink of an eye,” continuing: “But this is not a sad story, it’s a story of joy, love, grief and gratitude for what was. It is also my most ambitious album to date, conceived in the weeks after Sara’s death, as I worked with orchestras and choirs across Europe, trying to find the right sonic language to portray the Tsunami of emotions that were running through my body, mind and soul. Whilst this is my story, I hope that for someone, somewhere, it brings joy and maybe comfort for those of us that are just trying our best to get through the night. Keep going and stay safe…the light does come back.”


    Juanita Stein, The Weightless Hour

    Juanita Stein has unveiled her fourth solo LP, The Weightless Hour, via Agricultural Audio. The Howling Bells frontwoman previewed the follow-up to 2020’s Snapshot with the single ‘Mother Natures Scorn’. It sees the singer reuniting with Depeche Mode and Blur collaborator Ben Hillier. “I think making records is a really powerful way of letting go of experiences,” Stein said. “I’m allowing myself to kiss things goodbye.”


    The Innocence Mission, Midwinter Swimmers

    The Innocence Mission – the husband-and-wife folk duo of Karen and Don Per – are back with a new LP, Midwinter Swimmers. The follow-up to 2020’s See You Tomorrow was preceded by ‘This Thread Is a Green Street’ and the title track. “There is a companionship about Karen’s voice, and a realistic joy and gratitude, in the midst of life’s difficulties, that she is expressing here on songs like ‘Sisters and Brothers’,” Don Peris said in a press release. “I feel bolstered and comforted by them.”


    total tommy, bruises

    total tommy – the moniker of Sydney-based artist Jess Holt – has dropped her debut album, bruises, today via [PIAS] Recordings. Holt wrote the album during a period in which she went through a breakup, moved cities, came out as queer, and met her now-wife. “That was a really big time,” she said in a press release. “I grew so much, I learnt so much about myself; I mostly feel like an adult now.” She worked on the songs alongside producer and longtime collaborator Mark Zito of Fractures, seeking to capture the energy of the project’s live show.


    Other albums out today:

    Bedsore, Dreaming the Strife for Love; The Last Poets, AfricanismAisha Badru, The Sun Still Rises; Sech, Tranki, Todo Pasa; Jakob Bro, Taking Turns; Rikuto Fujimoto, Distant Landscapes; Jaeychino, Artwork III; Gregor Tresher, False Gods.
