¡Patterns In Repeat
¡Laura Marling
Description
[Machine Translation] Four and a half years after her Grammy & Mercury-nominated last album, British folk singer Laura Marling is back with her eighth album, co-produced with Dom Monks (Big Thief, etc.). If Song For Our Daughter, released in 2020 to critical acclaim, was metaphorically written for and about a fictional daughter, this is a song about the birth of a daughter in 2023 and the resulting song, Lola Marling's eighth album, co-produced by Dom Monks (Big Thief, etc.), is a song about the birth of a daughter. Song For Our Daughter was written after the birth of her daughter in 2023, and as a result, Laura reflects on the patterns that unfold within the constellation of family. The songs included are rooted in a very specific and revelatory period in her life, and are a profound reflection on the ideas and behaviors we have all been striving for through our families for generations. The album was recorded almost entirely in Marling's home studio and co-produced by Dom Monks. String master Rob Moose also participated. The recording sessions, often with Laura's daughter by her side, reflect the purely situational as well as the metaphorical affectionate nature of the album's content. This is the eighth studio album by the always prolific British musician, and the longest interval between releases in her 15-year career. This album, which can be ranked as her most lush to date, is a masterpiece that adds lush string arrangements and a broad sense of scale without losing any of the familiarity and reverence we have come to associate with her over the past decade. The album received critical acclaim and resulted in Mercury and Grammy nominations. Commentary included.
