Title: Must've been on mushrooms....
Review: On first play this is so so,harsh and almost unlistenable. Much more introspective than Kristens previous effort 'Hips and Makers. After a few plays however some of the hooks do grab you. Lots of plaintive cries about aching and loss. (I think, the lyrics are pretty obscure). The sparse strings and yearning needy, little girl voice does give an atmosphere to the album but to me the whole feels sad, whiny and dysfunctional. This is the poorest effort ever by Kristen. The lyrics are obscure and inconsequential, Kristen's whine grating as never before. The overwhelming depression about it means that I could only listen to this on my my own. If you like Lisa Germano this is your bag.
