Like Like, by Portland's Advrb, is an album in ten vignettes. Relationships, almost relationships, last frost walks, A.A. Milne recitations. Lyric-driven jangle pop in the lineage of Jonathan Richman, Jason Anderson, and Eleanor Friedberger.
On autumnal goldenrod-colored cassettes, with reversible covers, and a tiny lyric booklet with hand letter-pressed covers and a sewn binding.
This is a cassette-only release from Antiquated Future that comes with a download code. Listen on Bandcamp.
"On his latest tape, Like Like, Barton offers a love letter to youthful indiscretions and wide-eyed romance...And it’s within these various levels of commitment that we witness the full extent of his musical aptitude, with complex musical associations and memories vying for control of our hearts and minds." - The Tape Deck
