Batty hung the moon. We all know this.
It is known.

Batty, I think it was "u scurred" but I decided to amend it and attribute it to you.
You're welcome.

I've just read that this lady was killed by a supposed fan, which is horrible and inexcusable, but prior to this I had never even heard of her. This, her second album, was apparently released posthumously, with the consent of her family. “Steady Love” is a powerful pop ballad, good percussion on it, there's a real blues sway to “Crowded Room”. “Pressure” is okay, though I could do without the speaking bits going on in the background, not sure what that's about. “Echo” is really good though, upbeat without being annoying, then “I Only Miss You When I Breathe” is one of the standouts, a darkly atmospheric and bitter ballad which really showcases her voice. A horribly sad and tragic end to a promising career, indeed.

Check out more from this artist? I don't think so

Hold on a moment! Are you ****ing serious? I was just about to pass this, assuming it was yet another collection/retrospective, but then I read it's Berry's last album, released just before his death in 2017! Christ! The man was NINETY and STILL recording! There's a reason why he is, and deserves the title of being, a rock legend, even THE rock legend. Ratings have been suspended for this album, for obvious reasons. Your feet develop a life of their own without any input from you, from the first track and you're transported back to the 1950s, to the heyday of rock and roll. I guess really this album kind of defies or transcends review, and I doubt I'm either equal to the task nor have the right to do so, so all I'll say is that it's great to hear he had it right up to the end, throwing in rock (“Wonderful Woman”), blues (“You Go To My Head”, “Darlin'”), a little island music (“Jamaica Moon”), even spoken word (“Dutchman”) as well as keeping his trademark sense of humour (“3/4 Time (Enchiladas)”). He even has a look back to his classic with an update in “Lady B. Goode”. There's nothing more I can say. Rest in Peace, Chuck: the world of music, and especially the world of rock, owes you a debt it can never repay.

Well this is lovely, but I would have sworn that was a woman singing. Apparently, it's not. Slowcore may be my new thing: I don't think I've heard any band in the genre yet that I don't like. Shoegaze too, and this has both, and more. “Apocalypse” is a real standout, as is “Opera House”, but then the whole album is excellent. I could definitely see these guys taking their place, in time, beside such giants of the genre as Slowdive, Low and Ride.
