New View is the third studio album by American indie rock musician Eleanor Friedberger, released on January 22, 2016 on Frenchkiss Records.

I don’t want to sound like I’m miserable, [like] I’m angry, I’m hurt.”[5] The album’s composition was considered to be "more easygoing" and "more traditional" than that of Personal Record.

[3][7] Friedberger cited Yoko Ono, Neil Young, George Harrison, and Elyse as among her inspirations.

[2] In an interview with Brooklyn Magazine, Friedberger was asked whether she was worried about using the friend’s comment in her song, to which she replied "Why?

[1] On October 29, 2015, Friedberger announced that her third studio album was forthcoming, and revealed its title and track listing.

In conjunction with this announcement, she released the album’s lead single, "He Didn’t Mention His Mother", via SoundCloud.

[4] Friedberger also unveiled a list of upcoming tour dates to promote the release, including performances in Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York City, and Brooklyn.

[14] In a positive review for The Guardian, Tim Jonze praised Friedberger's lyrics and arrangements, writing: "[Her] offbeat delivery and lyrical quirks (“I’m opening a tree museum / It’s my new hobby,” she sings on Open Season; “And even if you had a twin / I wouldn’t notice her or him” is the touching sentiment of All Known Things) seem to balance nicely with this straightening out of the musical backdrop.

It’s keenly observed, totally genuine, and eminently listenable, though one can’t help but miss the choppy energy and anxious undercurrents of Personal Record".
