*Quite honestly one of the best albums of any description
you'll hear in 2011...* Julia Holter is one of the most
singular female artists we've encountered from the current
groundswell of American indies. Leaving Records is
possibly an unusual home for her latest, but then again,
what's "usual" about Sun Araw, Matthewdavid or Dem Hunger?
Her high concept fifth release, 'Tragedy' is based on the
Ancient Greek play 'Hippolytus', and mixes elements of
synth work with droning neo-classical strings, cloud-like
ambience and dreamily surreal vocals, almost like an
amalgam of Robert Ashley, Maria Minerva and Laurie
Anderson. There's very little else out there right now
with this sort of ambition, and most importantly, such a
shockingly effective sense of wonder. A stunning, stunning
album and an absolute must regardless of the kind of music
you usually listen to.
