Ethel Cain - Willoughby Tucker, I Will Always Love You (Aug 2025)

[jordxn]

I finally listened to this last week and I’ve not been able to play much else since. The way Sun Bleached Flies instantly joined my best songs of 2022 playlist.

I need to recent converts to also go back and stan the Inbred EP too - it’s arguably more accessible than the album is and just as good in its own way!

I’ve had God’s Country on repeat for hours. Thank you!

That was a classic, that was a classic

I went back and listened to everything I could get my hands on and Crush in particular has been played multiple times a day, every single day for over a month now.

Good men die, too, so I’d rather be with you

has become a favorite lyric of all time for me. She is just…unfathomable. Honorable mention to Michelle Pfieffer and literally everything else, too.

There's still such a specific magic to Michelle Pfeiffer for me. I get why she's pivoted since but the way it sounds like a slow motion car crash in a teen soap hits my old Switchfoot stanning pleasure center like nothing else.

[LeBratt]

This has become one of my favourite songs of hers. Just pure and raw heartbreak. Her voice and lyrics really speaks to me.

 

[Fabian]

Discovering this last night helped with a sleepless night. I love this woman! As @LeBratt said it’s all so raw and just feels so genuine, she needs to be much bigger.

 

[Your Pretty Brains]

I think I'm stanning harder than I've stanned anyone since Gagalagadoodoo. Thanks for posting "Growing Pains" there, @1986 -- gorgeous and I'll be diving into her work pre-Inbred now. Excited to try the "Powerline Valley" next.

I’m stanning her so hard I recently bought merch off her website which I never do (it’s terrible).

 

[PopHouseMusic]

I listened to the album following the reaction here and it was a religious experience hehe.

I've had the words "In your basement I grow cold, thinking back to what I was always told" and "AM I MAKING YOU FEEL SICKKKKKKK?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?" in my head for the past week.

 

[Jonathan27]

I'd still put several of her unreleased cuts in my top 5: Crying During Sex in particular needs an extended mix.

Stanning her has also had me dipping into acts I either put off or wasn't aware of: finally took the plunge into Grouper and Daughter, and I've had the Bedlocked album she mentioned as her AOTY on repeat the last week or so.

Mother will be at Coachella this year. So happy and proud of her.

The way it took me ten minutes to find her...

 

[Andy French]

Her Tumblr embeds never work for some reason but she's posted a new song, Bambi.

 

[Andy French]

I have no idea if this is something made by a fan or an official piece of the puzzle but I am obsessed with it. The rewritten Daughters of Cain prayer...

Not Willoughby delivering a eulogy - there wouldn't be a dry eye in the house.

And make me savoury meat, such as I love, and bring it to me, that I may eat; that my soul may bless thee before I die.
