In this episode of Re-Listen, we revisit Tracy Bonham’s raw and defiant debut, The Burdens of Being Upright. Released in 1996 at the height of alt-rock's mainstream surge, the album blends violin-laced aggression with introspective angst. We unpack its standout tracks, explore Bonham’s place in a male-dominated scene, and reflect on why this overlooked gem still resonates decades later.
