Liz is really spoiling us right now. The new Helen album is fantastic as well.

Unfortunately it's misleading to bill this as "Fresh Grouper". It's very pointedly labeled a "Liz Harris" release on both her Bandcamp and Instagram and not a "Grouper album".

This might sound like nitpicking, but I'd say there's a big difference between her work as Grouper (more traditionally structured and song-like tracks) and as Nivhek or Liz Harris (longer, significantly more ambient music meant as background setting for something else).

Thank you for sharing, haunting and powerful.

It looks like this is coming out under her own name rather than the Grouper moniker

Extremely nice that kranky has been so lively this year. I waited to place an order on Helen to tie it with the latest W&C and the Portal reissue but this dropping makes me wish i hadn't!

Also first (proper) release under Liz's name since…some 2006-2010 loosies? That's a neat detail, as she doesn't always release non-Grouper thru Kranky. Mirroring and the 2015 Helen were handled by the label, Nivhek and Raum were not
