where to start with her? heard a more trance-like minimal acoustic-leaning kind of one on the radio which i liked then listened to one of her albums and it was more rock-y than i thought it'd be

Once I Was An Eagle = trance-like and acoustic
Short Movie = more rock oriented
Both are very good though

new one is pretty but i don't like the tapping/drum machine lots

she also sing-talks in a british movie lady accent on this one, so i guess she's been shaking the seeping americanism people were noting ca. 'eagle'?

Has anyone listened to LUMP? I didn't even realize this came out until right now. Seems good so far.

I'm amazed this new one seems to be flying under the radar. Listening to it, I keep thinking it reminds me a lot of Hannah Peel, and turns out Peel plays trombone on it, so go figure. It's nice to hear Marling trying out a new direction.

the single I've heard was nice, totally forgot the album was out as well

There are about five Laura Marling threads, this one seemed the most active.

New album's pretty good, I need to listen to it again.

So I have it on now, and am I wrong in thinking this is her most Sheryl Crow-ish sounding album? I don't mean that as a criticism.

I love Laura Marling, and this new one really hasn't connected with me so far. Not yet ready to say it's the album's fault though.

Her voice sounds so good on that Tiny Desk video
