End of the Day [Music From the Film Anonymous Club]

by Courtney Barnett

Overview

End of the Day contains music Courtney Barnett improvised with drummer Stella Mozgawa for Anonymous Club, the 2021 documentary about Barnett directed by Danny Cohen. As they watched the final cut of the film, the pair of musicians created ambient waves of guitar, adding hints of keyboard and drums as coloring. Ultimately, End of the Day is nothing but coloring; it's all ambient textures and sounds suspended in air, music that may enhance onscreen visuals but feels in danger of slipping into the ether when heard as an album. That's not entirely unappealing. As a whole, End of the Day taps into the stillness that's flowed through Tell Me How You Really Feel and Things Take Time, Take Time, a melancholy that's as restorative as it is depressive. That feeling when not married to singing and lyrics winds up offering some measure of comfort. Free of melody, hooks, or other organizing themes, this music merely floats, a soothing sound to those who share its wavelength. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
