Lucy Dacus turns old diaries into something close to a memoir on Home Video, her 2021 third album, pressed here in a gatefold jacket.

Following No Burden and Historian, and arriving while her profile was rising through boygenius, the record looks back at growing up in Richmond, Virginia: church camp, first crushes and friendships that bent under pressure. Dacus co-produced it with Jacob Blizard, Collin Pastore and Jake Finch, and the arrangements give her conversational voice room to breathe, moving between hushed, close-miked moments and full-band swells that hit like a wave.

The songwriting is the main event. Hot & Heavy bursts open with nervy energy, looking at a younger self with affection and a little embarrassment. VBS recalls a summer Bible school romance with a wry eye, and its guitars kick in right when the story needs them. Thumbs, sparse and unnerving, imagines what she would like to do to a friend's cruel father, and it is one of the most gripping songs of her career. Brando wrestles with the gap between who she is and how other people see her.

Listening feels a little like being handed someone's private photographs, slightly blurry and impossible to put down.

It remains one of the most quietly devastating indie records of its decade, revealing a little more with every play.
