Bat for Lashes - The Haunted Man
Parlophone P915-5402 EU 2012
Sleeve: Still Sealed
Vinyl : -
Crafting a mystical indie-rock sound that drew comparisons to Kate Bush and Björk, Bat for Lashes is the project of Natasha Khan. Born into the Khan family of squash players -- which included her father Rahmat and her grandfather Nasrullah -- the half-Pakistani, half-English singer/songwriter moved to Hertfordshire, England when she was five and taught herself to play piano when she was 11. She conceived of Bat for Lashes while on a trip to San Francisco, drawing on inspirations like Steve Reich and Susan Hiller, as well as the multimedia installations she learned to create while studying art at the University of Brighton.
Natasha Khan's two previous Bat for Lashes albums -- 2006's Fur and Gold and 2009's Two Suns -- were lavish affairs from their cover images to their intricate songs. The Haunted Man, however, is simpler, more assertive, and even aggressive; the picture of Khan, naked except for the also nude man slung over her shoulders, on the album's front is no mistake. Born from a nearly paralyzing case of writer's block, these songs, such as the singles "Laura" and "All Your Gold," are more direct than anything Khan has done before, while retaining the air of mystique that has made her one to watch and listen to since the beginning.
Original European 2LP set, with bonus CD. Still Sealed! Whether is is the WHITE or BLACK VINYL pressing or not is impossible to say, since both issues share the same catalogue number.
