    I have always loved Amanda Palmer's music and art. Until now. For me, this album is dull, boring and a complete miss. We have been waiting for a new album since her ceiling smashing record with the Grand Theft Orchestra. We will have to keep waiting. Cause this wasn't it.

    Unfortunately I don't have many good things to say about the album. I'm a big fan of Amanda Palmer and like most of the things she has done, but none of the songs on this album sat well with me at all. Either they were actively annoying songs or very boring.

    At best, I Can Spin a Rainbow feels like the work of two talented artists savoring a long weekend of boundless creativity together, but from an outsider's perspective, the results are a bit too impenetrable to contextualize without having been in the room to witness its genesis.

    The pair mesh with ease. [Jul 2017, p.112]

    Each song tells its own story so intensely and so completely, like 11 musical horror novellas, that listening to any of them individually produces an experience more like that of listening to a shortish, intense, masterpiece-like album, especially as the songs often have a few different musical sections and ideas.
