I’ve loved Marnie from the first moment I heard her. Her subsequent music didn’t move the ball forward very much, but it didn’t have to. Her guitar work is crackling Sonic Youth-y greatness. Her attitude is punk, experimental crazy.
But this, her newest album, is a little different. Just a little. How? It’s got truly amazing vocals and the best percussion of all her albums.
The result is a collection that at times actually sounds….Accessible? Not fully accessible. Not pop. But there’s a melody line, and there’s catchy riffs. It’s not just noisepop. It is noisepop, it’s not just noisepop.
I actually think I like this one the best.
Great, great record. Thank you Marnie!!!!!!
