"Sometimes, you have no other choice than to follow the hype..."
Ouais, et bien au final, il est vraiment bien fichu le dernier album de Fiona Apple , intitulé "Fetch The Bolt Cutters".
Impressionnant même.
Y a du Dresden Dolls à fond dedans (coucou Amanda Fucking Palmer, where are you? what are you doing? we miss you), du PJ Harvey, mais en fait toutes les femmes du rock et au-delà sont en fait représentées ici, dans une série de chansons ultra inspirées et fascinantes sur la condition féminine à travers un spectre d'émotions et de scènes de la vie de tous les jours, ce qui rend d'emblée ce disque assez universel.
C'est intelligent, pertinent, prenant, parfois renversant, bref, c'est la classe. Ce retour de Fiona... quand je pense que j'avais zappé ce disque tellement je n'en attendais rien ou presque. Quelle erreur...
