OUT NOW. Myriam Gendron - "Look Down That Lonesome Road" from "Mayday" [LP/CD](Feeding Tube/Thrill Jockey)

The Quebecois singer/songwriter steers her Avant-Garde Buckley-esque Folk into several heartbreaking songs on this heavy but enchanting album. There is a Nico-esque loneliness in her voice that needs to capture you first ("Long Way Home.") However, the isolating beauty of this song will stop you and wrap around you with its mixture of finality and warmth. In the end, as soul-crushing as her album may be in its Leonard Cohen-esque impact, the beauty of her voice and guitar make it soothing and assuage you. The first album in a long time to live up to the standards of classic Sixties Folk.
