Zizzing
Air flush with water Skin slick with oil Power poles zizzing in the fog like Tesla coils Sweeping patterns, glistening crystals What we call music... See the rest of the song lyrics

    Comfortably merging politics and humanity, odd genre hybrids and supple playing, Binary finds DiFranco’s 19th solo studio album provocative and thought-provoking.

    Binary is an album which is shot through with the sort of confidence that only an artist nearly 30 years into her career can bring.

    DiFranco stretches musical muscles to stay inspired on Binary. She continues to speak her mind with the pride, ferocity and integrity that has shaped an impressively rebellious career.

    Released in a year of deep social unrest and political division, DiFranco's musical missives of strength and resolve are timely and welcome, although it's some of Binary's more personal and introspective tracks that really stand out emotionally.
