Hibakusha Don't Eat Pop-Tarts
Set in the sun-bleached landscape of the Inland Empire, Hibakusha Don't Eat Pop-Tarts follows a disturbed young woman's descent into the death throes of suburban complacency. Throughout a series of increasingly gruesome hallucinations, Darla struggles to come to terms with decay and an acceptance of the dichotomous nature of Southern California.Julian Porter's debut is best paired with a Ben Howard album, a Marlboro Red, and a nostalgic appreciation for childhood anxiety.
