    It gets annoying when you listen to it long enough. Also, I was expecting an unconventinal approach to the album and it’s honestly, it’s nothing we haven’t heard before.

    It’s Davies’ finest work to date and a testament to her strength and artistic vision.

    Davies has given a powerful, challenging voice to her grief. Great music doesn’t necessarily come from great suffering, but if you’ve the strength for the job, it certainly can.

    The Art of Losing has been in the can for a couple of years now, delayed by the pandemic. It’s been worth the wait: this is a special record. They don’t come along very often. Quotable, immersive, moving, imaginative, delicate, and dramatic. A stellar achievement.
