Jenny Hval - Classic Objects LP Vinyl Record (Indie Exclusive Blue Coloured Vinyl)

Classic Objects is a map of places; past places, like the old empty Melbourne pubs Hval’s band used to play in, public places Hval missed throughout lockdown, imagined, future places, and impossible places where dreams, hallucinations, death and art can take you.  It is interested in combining heavenly things and plain things. 

Classic Objects is Hval’s version of a pop album.  Every song has a verse and a chorus.  There are interchangeable moments of complexity, interesting melodies throughout, and a feeling of elevation and clarity in the choruses.  Heba Kadry mixed it to sound as though it’s played through “a stereo in a mysterious room.” 

“In 2020, like everyone else, I was just a private person,” says Hval.  “No artists were allowed to perform.  I was reduced to ‘just me.’”  As a result, Hval questioned what “just me” could mean.  Was it the version that never got away from her hometown?  Was it the idea that there is an obvious truth behind a work of art?  Is art nothing but a fancy, difficult construct, and one that is not really necessary?
