Tom Dunne: Boygenius have already produced the best record of the year
Boy Genius: Phoebe Bridgers, Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker.
I know it’s only early April, the darling buds are barely out, Eurovision still a distant threat, but honestly, if a better album than this is released in 2023, hats will be bought and served with skinny fries. Boygenius, The Record, is SUPERB.
I am having to rein in my excitement. I don’t want to come across as an overexcited child who spots a magician carrying gifts walking up the drive, but this is special. In the words of the late Jimmy Magee, it is, “different class”.
