David Gicev

Her best work yet. The lyrics are given space to breathe and the music works its way around them, rather than it being the other way around. Her songwriting, coupled with poetic storytelling, is put on full display. No longer are the lyrics moulded to fit the tune, instead they are made the center piece. The philosophy of the album matches its release. No tracks made solely for radio play are to be found, consequently every song on the album has immense lyrical depth. In addition, the album is sonically coherent and cohesive, employing a quiet instrumental sound in the background, making the vocals stand out. It's not a casual listen, and it requires the listener's focus.
