MKN 彼女のバックグラウンドにはエモ・マスロックがあるのですが、よりオルタナティヴに幅広いリスナーの評価を得た1stアルバム『Better At Night』とはまた違った彼女の一面が垣間見ることができます。インディーロック寄りに変化した最新作とは違い、どちらかといえばシンプルなマスロックやフォークの要素が強く、彼女のルーツを知ることができます。美しく、優しい。

『Houses』というタイトルが表すように彼女の生まれ育った町や、ベッドルームでのMVもあり、懐かしさ、なんだか自分の故郷を思い出してしまうような作品。長く寄り添ってくれる音楽。ぜひ、レコードで聴いてください。

レコードは前半が『Houses』、後半は2018年夏にリリースした1stアルバム『Better At Night』より6曲を新たにライヴ・セッションとして再録したものです。とても豪華なボーナストラックです。 Favorite track: Gymnastics.

Harry jc Reeves I think this album is an amazing piece of art. While it is very reserved and quiet, it contains some powerful instrumentation and lyricism. Love it to bits. Favorite track: Wake Up.

Wake Up 01:46
i wear to sleep now that purple t shirt you'd associate me with. now i'm trying to work out how old it is. how did we meet? i think through memories with you. an exercise to wake me up.
2.
Butterflies 03:59
drive carefully here we're going through galleries. it's so quiet and dead. you turn and kiss my head all at once, twice i heard from a swallow that it was someone's birthday tomorrow. if i was a butterfly i'd make love happen all the time cause when i fall in love i feel them flying round all the time. the fisherman's capturing as the cameraman captures him and it's so quiet and dead. i wonder what's in his head all at once, twice i heard from a swallow that it was someone's birthday tomorrow.

Library Days 03:46
it was so nice to see your face. sorry i forgot how to behave. it's been a while. i don't get out much these days. it was so nice to see your face. i hope you're getting by okay. give it a while. we can enjoy our days.

Gymnastics 03:51
wish i could throw myself high as you can throw a basketball into the sky. but that won't happen no. my muscles are too small. gymnastics comes so easy in a daydream. i throw imaginary limbs on my imaginary beam and nothing weighs a thing cause it's a daydream. i feel amazing, so youthful free and able. wish i could flip myself fast as you can flip a skateboard around your feet. but that won't happen no. i'm not fear free as i used to be. gymnastics come so easy in a daydream i throw imaginary limbs on my imaginary beam and nothing weighs a thing cause it's a daydream. i feel amazing, so youthful free and able (i've got a little bit overtired, i've got a little bit bored of adult life). but when i try in the real world i just land on my optimistic head.

we're dreaming inside our headphones. they make our natural hair fall so unnaturally. but we're in our own worlds now as the wheels turn underneath our bodies, pushing the road into the dark. held hands are getting sweaty i love late journeys with you next to me. we're dreaming inside our headphones. the passing of notes and colours arranged perfectly helps us drift further away as the wheels turn like waves in the sea as they run into towns we go through. blue eyes are getting heavy i love late journeys with you next to me.

Houses 02:50
why does the purple only show in the distance? the sky gets thicker the further the houses. wish i could see above my house. from your house what's the background of mine look like? do you ever run away to a clearer place and clear your head, become emotionally dead? i played your songs while i looked into the distance imagining them blasting through the houses. wish i could see things as you do in your house while it wears its purple suit. do you ever run away to a clearer place and clear your head, become emotionally dead? become empty and cold for a while then go home? cause i imagine if i tried i'd overthink everything except the way i'm travelling and never find my house again.
