The Japanese House – In The End It Always Does Blue Vinyl
Description
Limited Edition Blue Opaque Vinyl
In The End It Always Does is the breathtaking second studio album from indie pop project The Japanese House (Amber Bain), released in 2023. A deeply personal exploration of cyclical relationships, queer identity, and the fluid nature of trauma and healing, the album beautifully marries heartbreakingly vulnerable lyricism with infectious, sunshine soaked pop hooks. Produced alongside George Daniel of The 1975 and Chloe Kraemer, the record stands as a masterclass in modern, widescreen dream pop.
This stunning limited edition pressing is on gorgeous opaque Cornflower Blue vinyl, perfectly mirroring the album’s melancholic yet soothing sonic atmosphere. The soft, elegant hue of the wax elevates the physical package, transforming the record into an eye catching collector's piece that beautifully complements the intimate, pastoral photography of the sleeve artwork.
Standout tracks such as “Boyhood”, “Sad to Breathe”, and the infectious, dance leaning anthem “Touching Yourself” showcase Bain’s unparalleled talent for pairing devastating emotional honesty with shimmering, unforgettable pop melodies that linger long after the needle lifts.
In The End It Always Does is a definitive masterpiece of modern indie pop. A lush, cathartic, and beautifully realised sonic landscape that makes for an absolute essential spin on coloured wax.
