Blood Bitch

Jenny Hval’s art pop took a long time to spill out past the Norwegian border. Blood Bitch, her sixth studio album, finally afforded her recognition as one of the most accomplished creators of the current period in the territory of avant-pop, art pop and performance art. Fragments of conversations private or public, electroacoustic investigations, smart approaches to song and poetry, unusual stories, and a cohabitation of pop and avant-garde forms are to be found here.
