There is a song on Big Thief’s Capacity that sounds like it was recorded on frontwoman Adrianne Lenker’s phone,
late at night and under a blanket, whispered over her acoustic guitar. Like most everything on the album, “Coma” is an oblique mixture of rapture and dread, a locked box to which only Lenker has the key.
But halfway through, it’s as though the covers are thrown off: The full band’s vivid, pulsing folk-rock spills across the stereo field, bright as the full moon.
