Title: Keren Ann in Wonderland
Product review: "Nolita," Keren Ann's fourth full-length, is finally garnering the French artist the attention she deserves. That said, I like "Lady & Bird," a collaboration with Iceland's Bardi Johansen (Gang Bang), almost as much. It has the soft and gentle vocals one would expect combined with some appealing weirdness, like a cross between "Alice in Wonderland," "Night of the Hunter, and Air's "Virgin Suicides" soundtrack--both musically and thematically. That said, I don't quite "get" the concept; something about two lost children named Lady (Keren Ann) and Bird (Bardi), but the tunes are great and the covers, the Velvet Underground's "Stephanie Says" and "Suicide is Painless" (the theme from "M*A*S*H"), seal the deal.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
