NINA NASTASIA - Run To Ruin, Touch & Go

Fantastically rich third album from the gifted Nina Nastasia, recorded by Steve Albini at Black Box studio in Noyate La Gravoyere, France. Much in the same way that Bonnie Prince Billy’s sublime “Master and Everyone” couldn’t quite be categorised as a straightforward exercise in Folk / Americana, Nastasia’s work shimmers across similarly sublime and uncategorisable terrain. The opening “We Never Talked”, for example, incorporates a dense wall of violin and strings that build to a gentle yet penetrating backdrop for her serene, honey-dipped, mysterious voice. The rest of the album continues in a similar vein, from the vaguely Mariachi/Calexico-ish vibe on “I Say That I Will Go” to the more full-bodied quasi electric workout of “Superstar” and the closing lullaby folk of the sun-drenched “While We Talk”. Nastasia is remarkable not only for her voice and song-writing skill, but also for her unbeleivably open and at times experimental approach to sound and production – innovating in her own unique, deceptively traditional way. Amazing.
