Item Description
Though the subject matter gets heavy, Blum s wry, self-aware sense of humor weaves its way throughout the record. Pity Boy s pithy title was just a funny pun I thought of, like, a sad pretty boy, Blum explains. It s a worthy expansion on 2015 s You Look A Lot Like Me (Blum s fourth album, but their label debut). Since then, Blum has become one of Don Giovanni s most popular artists. They ve toured relentlessly, both solo and with a band, most notably this year traveling in support of Lucy Dacus as well as the live show of popular podcast Welcome to Night Vale. It s impactful to listen to these songs through a transgender lens and some of the songs do touch on Blum s experience coming out as non-binary and transgender, a never-ending project in a starkly binary world - but truthfully, all these songs offer crashes of loneliness and sparks of euphoric recognition that will feel familiar to anyone surviving in 2019.
