PINES (A Fine Frenzy)



Call this one a mulligan. We see a very strong attempt at progressive, experimentation, as a way to separate her single-lady voice from the horde of other woman who are content with sitting on a piano stool. Shrouded in mystery, the music tends more often than not to center on confusion. It is not to say that she has made her album completely impenetrable – only that the project itself seems to be lacking a theme for its own existence, outside of the effort of trying something new. This is a typical album which may not signify any growth on the musician’s part, only a hiatus from her normal strong-suits.

Grade: B
