Our June 2023 CoSign Amber Bain, aka The Japanese House, has shared her second studio album, In the End It Always Does, via Dirty Hit. Stream it via Apple Music or Spotify below.
In her CoSign interview, Bain tells Consequence she found comfort in working with producer Chloe Kraemer, who she describes as now one of her best friends. “She reflected myself back at me in a lot of ways,” she says. “These songs are all about queer experience and being a queer woman, and I think that working with another queer woman helped get those songs out and treat them with the kind of romance that they need and deserve.”
Other collaborators on In the End include Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon (“Over There”), Muna’s Katie Gavin, and Matty Healy (“Sunshine Baby”) and George Daniel of The 1975, the latter of whom co-produced multiple tracks.

This movie from screenwriter Ailbhe Keogan and director Claire Dix is well intentioned – but it’s broad, and for me it does not really do justice to the seriousness of its euthanasia theme. There’s an odd, strained naivety here which goes right up to the silliness (and illegality) of its sentimental climactic scene on a lake.
Barry Ward (from Ken Loach’s Jimmy’s Hall) does his hyperactive utmost with the role of Leon, a recovering smack addict in Dublin and would-be musician who is devoted to his 12-step mentor Iver, a tough-talking old guy who saved him from drugs; this is a fierce performance from veteran player Liam Carney. But Iver is seriously unwell and Leon is astonished one morning when calling round to his flat to find...
