UncutFeb 8, 2018Luminous versions of American folk songs and old English ballads, alongside works by Lour Reed and Joy Division. [Mar 2018, p.35]
-
Feb 9, 2018Regardless of its leanings towards the descents into gloom, Go Dig My Grave retains a gorgeous edge, Susanna’s vocals are alluring as ever, on one of her most unique projects to date.
-
The WireFeb 23, 2018The execution is elegantly minimal and yet alive with textures and warmth, despite the album's melancholy and often morbid content. [Mar 2018, p.55]
-
Feb 8, 2018For the most part, Go Dig My Grave shows an appreciation that steers clear of sober reverence; these are well-worn and world-weary songs to be enjoyed, not artefacts to be handled in a sterile environment with special gloves. Sometimes, however, these reworkings miss the mark.
-
MojoFeb 8, 2018It's beautiful throughout, but more ice or fire is sometimes required. [Mar 2018, p.91]
-
Feb 9, 2018Go Dig My Grave might not hit the heights of some of her earlier albums, and is certainly a more uneven collection, but it shows Susanna to still be fascinated by the power of sad songs and in possession of a distinctive, singular ability of re-presenting them.
-
Feb 12, 2018When Wallumrød emerges from the long shadows of her source material, elevate Go Dig My Grave beyond the beautifully rendered, if rather pointless, collection of covers it sometimes threatens to be.
