“Bat for Lashes' cinematic ambition and sharp storytelling prove the perfect marriage on The Bride”
“Think ‘doomed bride’ and your mind might settle on Greek mythology’s Ariadne: Theseus dumped her on an uninhabited island, sailed away and left her to the unsolicited come-ons of the horny wine god Dionysus. Or maybe you’d opt for Kill Bill’s Black Mamba: her hubby-to-be is gunned down at their wedding rehearsal, so she turns into a vengeful killer. Bat For Lashes, AKA Natasha Khan, adds to this ”
“Natasha Khan's latest album as Bat For Lashes is a richly theatrical concept album detailing the story of a woman left at the altar after the husband dies in a car crash on the way to the wedding.”
“Shadowy art-pop experimenter crates a grueling yet rewarding song cycle.”
“Bat For Lashes returns with a conceptual but underwhelming new album.”
