Finally, the lady is responsible for such feats, the superior Cardigans album, Long Gone Before Daylight ... or even for huge hit Your Love Alone she has jointly taken with the Manic Street Preachers.
Animal Heart is obviously not really the first solo album, Nina has indeed already two solo albums under the. Brought name A Camp on the market. However, these were strangely never really my thing.
Nevertheless, I have of course given the new album a chance and am pleasantly surprised. Of course you can not compare this publication Ninas bisherigem back catalog, that's also not the whole point.
And so Mrs. Persson provides a, quite well-styled and very pleasing pop album from. And that's what makes me personally very much fun. The songs are all quite simply structured, nothing verkopftes or artistic PHONY be found on the disc. And you can hear the singer on that they had fun darsn probably correct.
At the production there for me also not much to complain. The musical part is, as already mentioned by the Vorrezensenten, relatively cool and clinically over. That bothers but in no way, because the voice of Nina is perfectly blended into the foreground and so missed the songs their special touch.
One thing is clear, we hear here is still one of the strongest voices in pop / rock circus that proves the Swede here in very impressive way.
Therefore, good four star for a successful pop album, with the hope that they will soon play together with their main band.
