Sinead O'Brien - Time Bend & Break The Bower (Uk) [LP]

Communing at the triangulation of words, music and image, O'Brien has always conjured powerful worlds: but none more powerful, or as immersive, than on her debut record. In the space that exists between her delivery - at once wry, silky, vicious, and self-assured - and the music - a dynamic, dancing call-and-response from her collaborators - lies a productive tension.
