Nourished By Time: The Passionate Ones (indie shop edition/clear) LP

Baltimore singer-songwriter and producer Nourished By Time presents his highly anticipated sophomore album, "The Passionate Ones", via XL Recordings. Crafted between Baltimore, London, and NYC, the record is a sermon, a twelve-track catharsis, howled from the underbelly of late-stage capitalism, a blueprint for building your own altar in the ruins of the American Dream. Channeling his deeply personal and sharply observational visions into songwriting, Marcus Brown has created a singular sonic world shaped by his hometown of Baltimore's rich and eclectic musical heritage where jazz, punk, indie, hip hop, electronic, and R&B collide in raw harmony. On "The Passionate Ones", Brown tackles love, labour, existentialism, dreams, disillusionment, and hope through the lens of metamodernism, documenting an American story of an artist using their vices to keep them afloat while they follow their passions and dreams.
