Two Suns – Bat For Lashes Review

Did you ever have a crush on that real smart, quiet, artsy girl and wanted to impress her with a cool mixtape? Well try using the new BAT FOR LASHES album TWO SUNS instead. It’s like taking songs from Kate Bush’s HOUNDS OF LOVE, Bjork’s DEBUT, the Cocteau Twins’ BLUE CALENDAR CAFE and Tori Amos’ LITTLE EARTHQUAKES and mixing them together with the hopes that you will get to chill with cool artsy girl and maybe get to make out with her and talk deep intimate thoughts until the morning. BAT FOR LASHES, a pseudonym for artist NATASHA KAHN, is a haunting album of an artist coming into her own. While she has been compared to the above mentioned artists, she is definately her own musician with her own voice and a stupidly bright future with fans like M.I.A, BJORK and THOM YORKE singing her praises. The opening track GLASS is on repeat in my head, and SIREN SONG is killing me. Her first single DANIEL feels like a throwback and her accompanying video with weirdo dancers dancing around her while she remains somewhat unaffected make her feel as unattainable as that artsy girl that I would want to send that mixtape to, but chicken out in doing so. Sigh. I have tickets for the concert this weekend, and hopefully it will win me cool points with the girl i’m going with.

POP KILLAH crushing on that pop since 2004.
