LateNightTales - Agnes Obel

"Everything bleeds into each other like a proper late-shift radio program, adding considerable heft to the already thick atmosphere ... Peppered throughout are four of Obel's own pieces, the most engaging of which is a lovely rendering of beloved Danish folk song "Glemmer du.. så husker jeg," that like the rest of the 20-track set, feels like the soundtrack to a David Lynch-sponsored Ayahuasca retreat".

"The songs Obel has selected are economical, but not ones whose main selling point is that they're 'no-frills.' These artists have little to hide behind, but they also have no reason to hide. Should this be an indirect plea from Obel for more attention to be paid to artists who do a lot with a little, she makes a strong case ... She's already proven herself an artist of great talent. With Late Night Tales, she proves herself one of great taste".
