Музыка и песни Hval, Jenny / Hval, Jenny на CD

Style: Indie-Pop

Jenny Hval's previous, acclaimed Rune Grammofon album "Viscera" (2011), recorded with her own free rock trio, overflowed with intimate detail and surrealistic bodily imagery. "Innocence Is Kinky" - which also features a string section led by avant garde composer Ole-Henrik Moe - was produced in Bristol, England by PJ Harvey collaborator John Parish, who helped bring out the intimate qualities of her lyrics and sharpened her improvisational tendencies. Like contemporaries such as Julia Holter and Laurel Halo, she's weaving spellbinding new forms of intelligent, experimental pop with injections from mythology, theory, gender politics and improvisation. You can also trace her no-holds-barred streams of consciousness and unorthodox subject matter back to earlier heroes such as EINSTÜRZENDE NEUBAUTEN's Blixa Bargeld (her title puns on their LP "Silence Is Sexy"), Patti Smith, Michael Gira, Nick Cave and Kate Bush, whose praises Jenny recently sung in a lecture on the female voice. "Anything that comes from a woman's mouth is a confession, and that's looked down upon," she says. "On "I Got No Strings", I'm writing about the impossibility of becoming an equal, female subject or finding an equal voice - the old idea that the male subject is "universal" and the female subject is "specifically female"."
