Note: Recent months have been very busy, so this album digest combines a review of the new album by The National with a couple of reviews left over from earlier in the year.
Only one of this month three albums was actually released this month. Nelly Furtado's Mi plan was actually released over three years ago - I only discovered it last year when I wrote the September album digest following the release of "The Spirit Indestructible", or it might have been when I wrote about "Folklore" at around the same time.
I had a bit more time to listen to this month’s albums because I was on holiday for two weeks. I didn’t manage to write about them while on holiday though! In fact I bought and listened to a few more, but I will save them for next month. The albums I will discuss now (in order bought) are:
It’s rather spooky but shortly after deciding to write about Nelly Furtado’s “Folklore” as the next understated classic, I found out that she has a new album out this week. As a result, I have been listening to a lot of her music while writing this post, and I’ve been enjoying it too.
