Fifty-word review

Borrow It

Is that chanting? Are there pots and pans involved? Actually, it’s just a gal playing all this crazy music herself - low-fi recordings hollow and honest. Vocals like a Swedish choirgirl on a freak-out trip, strumming an old acoustic and filling in the gaps with bells and whistles and overdubs.
