4 Angel Olsen – My Woman
Angel Olsen is
utterly mesmerizing, entrancing you to enter her world and discover it’s hazy
warmth, like a sepia tinged photograph. The mood gently broods and sways,
builds and drops, never fully lets rip but always holds something back, leaving
you wanting more. She takes you to the edge and then slams the brakes on. Her
vocals on the track Woman have an ethereal ambience, and the album as a whole,
has a languid, other dimensional atmosphere, which reminds me - and those who remember the early 90s may understand - of the melancholy
sense of Twin Peaks. A sweet layer of fuzz draped over her voice always hints
at nostalgia, a sentiment of fondly remembering times past and moments shared,
never to be regained. Discovering My Woman by Angel Olsen, with its exquisite
songs and mellifluous vocals, like picturing a scene through frosted glass, was
a lovely surprise and I am looking forward to seeing her play at The Roundhouse
in May 2017.
