Agnes Obel

The second single taken from Aventine, Agnes Obel’s latest album, is a fair representation of what listeners will find on it. Which is both good and bad, depending on mood and taste.

Dorian’s sparse arrangements, with low key rhythms, skeletal piano and almost disembodied vocals are very alluring, and actually make a great, if downbeat, single. As such it works better away from the album because within it, it’s just another track and almost lost in the album's general glumness.
