Cate Le Bon's Michelangelo Dying is out today. So of course it's Song of The Day.. I'll put it on my TV, heat up a jacket potato and see what I think. I'm done for the week.
The first thing that comes to mind is that it sounds lush. Luxuriant, like Cate's a painte. Mixing her colours and employing flamboyant brushstrokes. She's less angular than she tended to be on her earlier records.
She sounds a little like she's had an expensive transfer and is curreently playing centre forward for Warpaint. I must say it's a rille which suits her. And with fifteen miutes gone, she's knoching in shots from impossible angles and they're all hitting the target.
Accirding to Rolling Stone Magazine this is opaquely alluring . I concur. That's actually a good desciption for Le Bon's music. It's also beguiling. It's also got John Cale on it. In short t's terrific work. Avant Garde Himalayas.
