Notes
Zorked (adj.) - what happens when you end up thunderbaked, as in extremely stoned-or in any situation where you feel not sober. You can feel so tired you're zorked. In fact, any state, so long as you're a little out of it, qualies. And Julia Shapiro, of Chastity Belt, Childbirth, and Who Is She?-much like everyone on this earth with a pulse-was zorked on more than one occasion in 2020. In March, she packed up her things and traded Seattle's late-winter gloom for the perennial sunshine and seemingly endless opportunity of Los Angeles only to be forced into near-total isolation. With nowhere to go and nothing to do, she began working on her second solo album, Zorked. On the resulting batch of songs, we're given Julia's vision of Los Angeles: a wasteland melting in slow-motion, a place to commune with ghosts and warped legacies. Living within earshot of a man who spent his entire 2020 singing karaoke for over 10 hours a day, Julia could write, record, and play an album's worth of instruments without fear of noise complaints. Her roommate Melina Duterte (Jay Som) transformed their house into a viable home studio, making it easy to fully realize the sound in her head, even at the height of a global lockdown. Taking things a step further, Melina agreed to co-produce the record, pushing Julia to make these new songs sound less like Perfect Version, her rst solo album, or like the songs she performs in Chastity Belt. At the peak of her uncertainty and discomfort, she jumped into the deep end in search of something new-and found power in heavy sounds. This is evident in the rst few seconds of album opener "Death (XIII)." Taking newfound inspiration from the namesake Tarot card, drone metal, and shoegaze, Julia layers walls of guitars, bass chords, and programmed drums. "Come With Me," the album's lead single, takes inspiration from a mushroom trip gone bad. "Take me to awful places now," she sings, envisioning heat death as her own eyes stare directly into the sun. On "Wrong Time," shimmering guitars smolder and levitate, yet she nds herself "stuck inside this hole I've dug." That said, these songs aren't unbearably sad, nor has Julia become any less of a merciless observer of human behavior. By album closer "Hall of Mirrors," she's come full circle. Over ngerpicked guitar, the sense of lost identity becomes all-encompassing. It's the sound of a life lived in servitude to digital screens and the psychic damage invisibly done along the way. Though Julia Shapiro found herself in a near hermit-like existence, writing and recording almost all of the album's instruments herself and struggling to navigate her place in a city and world rendered nearly comatose, she maintains a sense of humor about all of it. At the very least, "It's funny to force people to have to say Zorked out loud. Any other title sounded pretentious."

- e***e (174)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseAppears to be brand new and exactly as described. It was securely packaged and arrived undamaged. The shipping time was longer than I expected considering it was shipped from the same state that I reside in. It did arrive by the Ebay due date however. I don't believe that this reflects negatively on the seller as sometimes shipping times is completely out of control of the seller. I do recommend this top tier seller to anyone looking for a very wide selection of titles at reasonable prices.
