Reviews
3 stars out of 5 - "...His sonorous croon takes centre-stage...with the musical backing refined to a tasteful minimalism....the music is beautiful enough to render even the worst indulgences palatable...", "...Weeping strings and mournful slide guitars snuggle against Perry's blissful brushed-velvet voice. He hasn't forsaken titles like 'Death Will Be My Bride' but this virtuoso crooner seems to have otherwise given up the ghost." - Rating: A-, 5 out of 5 - "...the most exhilarating beautiful music he's ever made....packs an intensity that far transcends its running time...", "...it's quality we want, and get. Perry's sonorous, innantely sorrowful voice glides around in spacious, glacial surrounds, like an aching ghost....The mood is folk-gothic, archaic and cinematic, with bare-bone arrangements...", "...a traditional folk record, dressed up in the Medieval grandeur of Perry's soul-searching vision."
