    As well as command of the overall mood, Lipstate always demonstrates a steely command of her influences. But these mini homages don't swamp her sound--quite the reverse.

    With her eighth proper solo album as Noveller, Lipstate continues to push her otherworldly sound in fascinating new directions.

    A bravely uncompromising yet often richly rewarding affair all told.

    Unsurprisingly, Noveller has scored many films in the process of building her voluminous catalogue; out on her own, but playing a subtle role in realigning 21st century music.

    Mostly, A Pink Sunset… is truly beautiful background music, gently chiming and pulsing and ricocheting off of itself and into your subconscious.

    A dry and devilishly powerful psych rock collection, hard-nosed and sinister in all the right ways.

    Where on earlier albums, you could sense her thinking about what to do with the sounds she could make, now she seems more fully in control of her set of instruments. Process has slipped into the background, as she gains fluency in an invented language.

    The variety of genres and sounds that emerge within her compositions give Lipstate’s work a multitextured feel, but in moments I found myself wishing for more concision in the way such ideas are digested.

    Noveller is nothing if not consistent and A Pink Sunset Over No One is another fine example of such success.
