Oct 15, 2012It's an extremely fine album that is without doubt her best work yet.
-
Oct 16, 2012Having gotten an Édith Piaf tribute (and a baby) out of her system since, she reorients herself admirably with Come Home to Mama.
-
Oct 18, 2012This is an album about a mother's love, made by a mother, for a mother. And it also happens to be Martha Wainwright's greatest artistic achievement to date.
-
MagnetDec 4, 2012It's another creative leap for an artist who explores difficult human emotions with a bravery and intensity few singers ever approach. [No. 93, p.60]
-
Nov 2, 2012More provocative and aggressive yet theatrical than any full album the moody Martha has executed to date. Brava.
-
Nov 13, 2012This latest effort is underscored by sweeping arrangements and a turbulent pulse that only serves to accelerate that sense of drama and defiance.
-
Oct 15, 2012The po-faced classicism of Proserpina drags, and little here packs the visceral punch of Wainwright's older songs.
