The Japanese House

Matters of the heart

On her sophomore album, In The End It Always Does, The Japanese House, aka Amber Bain, explores themes of love, loss, and identity. With her dreamy vocals and heartfelt lyrics, Bain captures the cyclical nature of relationships in a range of real experience that is unapologetically human. The album, co-produced by George Daniel of The 1975 and Chloe Kraemer, “is about falling in love and not wanting it to end, but knowing it always does,” says Bain.
