Kathleen Edwards - Failer


young canadian kathleen edwards provides blackened interiors from an ongoing life on her debut album failer. she crowds her loneliness with people who have seen their glory days, or who will never see them. her somewhat slack singing, with a touch of margo timmins and kirsty mccoll, emphasizes the hopeless, at the same time as jim brysons pointy guitar figures provides the experience conture and sharpness. the world of kathleen edwards expresses a state of mind: pregnant and poignant.

grade: 4 (out ot 6)
