Description:

Crooked by Kristin Hersh, released 27 September 2019, includes the following tracks: "Glass", "Fortune", "Crooked", "Flooding" and more. This version of Crooked comes as a 1xLP. The vinyl is pressed as a opaque disc. -

Following a special vinyl release for this year's Record Store Day celebrating it's tenth anniversary, 'Crooked' is reissued on black vinyl and CD. 'A figurehead for feminist indie rock' (Classic Rock), Kristin Hersh achieved a music and publishing first when her eighth solo album was initially released as a multi-media book in 2009. Hersh's 'poetic, provocative and puzzling songcraft' (The Washington Post) makes 'Crooked' a stunning record. The resplendent, melancholic 'Flooding' came to Hersh in the form of song but was also a premonition of the imminent death of close friend and musician Vic Chesnutt. Mainstay in her recent live shows, 'Mississippi Kite' is snarly and unsettling whilst the spectral psychedelic tones of 'Rubidoux' stem from a 50foot Wave car ride and a late-night recording session. The songs still lead the way hitting Hersh fully formed but it's her beguiling raspy vocals paired with guitar, and any other instrument that she chose to play on this album, that has a beautiful intensity that's jarring, unpredictable and inherent in her music. 'She's still as powerful a presence as she ever was.' Pitchfork
