Album: Learning
Mike Hadreas is Perfume Genius, the young solo artist from Seattle who first began releasing his music online after moving to Washington from New York. Now in his 20s, Perfume Genius has released his debut album, Learning, a melancholic 30-minute record featuring wonderful piano playing and heavy lyrics from a soft voice.
As Mike Diver wrote in his BBC music review: “This is a sad record, but one where pain is articulated with an acute beauty that glosses somewhat over emotional cracks, mercifully without such heavy handedness that compelling catharsis can’t take flight.”
Mr. Peterson was an old high school teacher.
