Patty has so many different strengths - delicate heartbreak, rawking out, perfectly-formed country songs, brilliantly-imperfect folk - and yet this album and the last are a bit MOR and "yeah, that's nice enough" for me. I miss the gothic touches in Austra's Olympia, but will give it a few more goes. The single is catchy, but there isn't enough oddness. I managed to enjoy several songs on Dido's new album because I'm not a fan, so I can happily pick and discard. Sure some depressing stuff on there! Loving Thea too. Strong from beginning to end.
