listening on spotify -- this does sound cool! kind of has a late 60s floyd-y folk thing happening which rules. i've heard bits and pieces of sykes before, but this sounds more up my alley.

yeah i went through her older albums and they are good, but she seems to have gotten way more psychey and spacey and jammy and better as time goes on, kind of evolving out of alt-country

This is really a game changer for her. Don't expect to find anything else in her disography half this spacey and weird. I'm STILL not sure if I like it! But I listen to it all the time!!

i'm pretty much in love after a couple listens
if she had a weird band name and was signed to some drag city subsidiary i think all the kool new weirdo america kidz would boner over this

yeah seems that way -- when i see her name, i think of no depression magazine.

She should change her name Jesse Psych & the Sweet Psychs!

I think Marble Son is the only album of her's that I don't love. good album for sure, but i don't really feel the same emotional resonance with it that I do with the others.
though I'm sure I'll love it after 5 more listens

I completely skipped over Oh, My Girl at the time and just discovered it. might be my favorite one

Reckless Burning and Oh My Girl are fantastic. Her voice plus Wandscher's guitar = heaven.
still true

Just discovering her and getting that urge to plunge... The Air is Thin is practically making me levitate.
Could anyone compile a top 10 primer type thing?
