"It's subdued, introspective, jazzy, perhaps even "sedate," almost a callback to the Beatnik Era, complete with the dingy 50's kitchen curtain and the stained coffee mug going cold on the side table as you chain-smoked Turkish cigarettes, the sort of album you probably wouldn't put on for your gir..."  [+]  Reply
