ALBUM OF THE MONTH: LUCY DACUS - FOREVER IS A FEELING

March 5, 2025

Album of the Month: Lucy Dacus – Forever is a Feeling


Lucy Dacus is back with Forever Is a Feeling, and let’s just say, she’s not holding back. This album is bigger, bolder, and full of emotional gut punches (the good kind). Wrapped in a Renaissance-inspired aesthetic, Forever Is a Feeling blends traditional sounds with lush production, creating something both timeless and refreshingly modern.

What's the sound?

It kicks off with Calliope, an instrumental track that sets the mood like the opening scene of a great movie. Collaborators like Bartees Strange, Jay Som, and Hozier help bring new textures to Dacus’s signature storytelling. Where Home Video reflected on youth, this album does the opposite. Diving headfirst into grown-up love, messy emotions, and tough choices. Ankles is playful and intense, Limerence wrestles with commitment fears, and Best Guess might just be your new favourite wedding song. Plus, her boygenius bandmates, Phoebe Bridgers and Julien Baker, make a few welcome appearances.

It all wraps up with Lost Time, a reminder that nothing lasts forever - but that’s what makes it special. Honest, lush, and extremely addictive, Forever Is a Feeling is an early standout of the year.
