Extended vocal techniques over dark, sparse, somewhat tribal instrumentation. Her voice is the focal point of the album and she carries it fairly well but not without fault (et pour le enfants could've been cut). Mord recommended this to me a while back and while I enjoyed it last time, I liked it a lot more on this go around. Very dynamic record that ranges from dizzying to beautiful to playful to overpowering. It's a great album y'all. Her use of the microphone on this is pretty interesting too. 8/10
Favourite tracks: La naissance, Jubilate du deuxième dimanche après l'épiphanie, La femme au désert
