专辑介绍
Joanna Newsom是一个有着无限精神头的女生，特点就是年轻并且涉猎广，出生于1982年的她，出身于音乐世家，是Terry Riley的邻居，从小学习钢琴，掌握一手精湛的凯尔特竖琴，思维跳脱不局限，朋克的诗意、民谣的纯真、爵士的曼妙都是她心有灵犀的素材，并影响着她的创作动机，在民谣的肌理之上将异域民歌与先锋创作的手法融于一炉，是The Pleased、Deerhoof等多支同族Indie乐队的键盘手/竖琴手，《The Milk-Eyed Mender》是其第一张Solo唱片，展现了一副儿童般未经修饰的嗓音，浅吟低唱之处有种青葱本真的美感，古怪而甜蜜，轻轻撩动的琴弦也契合着其一尘不染的整体调调，Will Oldham和Cat Power都对其赞赏有嘉。
Classically trained harpist Joanna Newsom uses her appreciation of Appalachian folk and bluegrass for an oddly alluring set of indie rock melodies. Milk-Eyed Mender, which follows her homemade EP releases Walnut Whales and Yarn and Glue, is rich in harvest colors. Newsom's childlike voice brings an unstudied grace to an innocent setting of songs, and such quirkiness is hard to find among most guitar-driven indie acts. From the more whimsical moments of "Peach, Plum, Pear" and "Inflammatory Writ" to the dovelike ballad "This Side of the Blue," Newsom welcomes the listener to sink into its imagination. Delicate harp arrangements are nicely sprinkled among specks of pianos, organs, and a harpsichord, only adding to the fascination that is Milk-Eyed Mender. Some may find the album to be overly sweet in spots due to Newsom's girlish voice; however, the fairytale-like appeal of Milk-Eyed Mender is far too intriguing to dismiss. Newsom exists in several musical spheres, one being a member of the Pleased, while not forgetting how wonderful it is to live in a warm place that leaves you bright-eyed and hopeful for only what is good in life.
