Lucy Dacus is marking a decade of No Burden. The 2016 debut turned her from a Richmond unknown into one of indie rock's sharpest voices, and now it's getting the anniversary reissue treatment. This is a big one.
To celebrate, Dacus shared "No Thank You, I Love You, Goodbye," a previously unreleased gem that fans have chased for years. If you remember the slow-burn devastation of "Night Shift" or the wry warmth of "Familiar Place," you already know how she builds a track: patient, then it hits.
She also dropped a Japanese Breakfast cover, one songwriter's songwriter tipping the cap to another. It's a lovely moment between two artists who understand restraint.
No Burden always felt like a stunner hiding in plain sight, the sound of someone figuring out exactly how good she was. Ten years on, that momentum has only grown, from Historian to Home Video to the boygenius era.
Go back and sit with the record. It still holds.
