{"product_id":"cd-weather-station-the-ignorance-cd","title":"Ignorance","description":"\u003cp\u003eOnce again, Toronto songwriter Tamara Lindeman has remade what The Weather Station sounds like; once again, she has used the occasion of a new record to create a new sonic landscape, tailor-made to express an emotional idea.  Ignorance, Lindeman’s debut for Mississippi label Fat Possum Records, is sensuous, ravishing, as hi fi a record as Lindeman has ever made, breaking into pure pop at moments, at others a dense wilderness of notes; a deeply rhythmic, deeply painful record that feels more urgent, more clear than her work ever has.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe title of the album, Ignorance, feels confrontational, calling to mind perhaps wilful ignorance, but Lindeman insists she meant it in a different context. In 1915 Virginia Woolfe wrote: “the future is dark, which is the best thing a future can be, I think.” Written amidst the brutal first world war, the darkness of the future connoted for Woolfe a not knowing, which by definition holds a sliver of hope; the possibility for something, somewhere, to change. In French, the verb ignorer connotes a humble, unashamed not knowing, and it is this ignorance Lindeman refers to here; the blank space at an intersection of hope and despair, a darkness that does not have to be dark.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ORCHARD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40417837973578,"sku":"391798","price":23.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0566\/7120\/7498\/files\/391798-Product-0-I-638917010082350719.jpg?v=1784004486","url":"https:\/\/www.jbhifi.co.nz\/products\/cd-weather-station-the-ignorance-cd","provider":"JB Hi-Fi NZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
