Title: Irksome at times.
Product review: I'm not saying that Katell isn't a talented artist, that she is not original, this album is simply not that accessible - partly due to its weirdness. If one wants to hear spoken sections on an album, that's OK, and yes, it's atmospheric, but I personally prefer to listen to MUSIC instead. The song "O seasons", "Partisan" and "Franklin" are stunning indeed but the rest is sometimes way too jazzy or simply irritating for me (Katell's vioce is at times even frightening - while listening to "Burden" one can really FEEL THE BURDEN of the act of listening to such a song). Overall, this purchase was a great disappointment, because I really thought it was gonna be something at least as good as Natalie Merchant. (And yes, though I've not listened to the Natalie's version of "Gulf of Araby", I'm sure she's done it better.)
