Expectations can be a crippling obstacle for a musician. Whether by the quality of previous records, word-of-mouth enthusiasm, or just general interest, a new album can buckle under what an audience wanted rather than what it received. Bat For Lashes has been a fantastic act for two full-length records, including 2009’s near-masterpiece Two Suns . Critical acclaim, well-received live shows, and rabid fandom have all boosted the profile of Natasha Khan’s project. Therefore, it holds true that expectations for her third album, [...]

A Bat For Lashes le ha sentado bien el descanso, y va a ponérselo muy difícil a la gente que haga listas con lo mejor de 2012, y a las voces femeninas como Fiona Apple , o Cat Power , que si creían que tenían el podio asegurado, deberían empezar a temblar, porque " The Haunted Man " es uno de esos discos que recordaremos [...]
Bat For Lashes stopped by Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show recently and offered her take on Rihanna 's still-excellent 2011 single "We Found Love."

Bat For Lashes' new album, The Haunted Man is out October 23; you can listen to 6 songs from the album here . [...]

We still prefer earlier Haunted Man singles "Marilyn" and "Laura," but Hercules and Love Affair 's fun, little house revamp of "All Your Gold," is a welcome change of pace for the song.

Every year, established artists release great albums with absolutely terrible album covers. Lou Reed and Metallica's Lulu was a standout of 2011, perhaps not musically but for having an atrocious cover. This year's best candidate already looks like the new Bat for Lashes record. Luckily the music inside seems like it's going to be just as ethereal and fantastic as his first two albums. 'Laura' is the first single from The Haunted Man , and made its debut on BBC Radio 1 yesterday. The Haunted Man is out stateside 10/23 on Capitol, and 10/15 in [...]

5 Songs is a weekly series where we point out the strange, the grand, and the unique connections between our favorite songs. Let’s get weird.

A really great cover is one that takes the place of the original in your mind. There are more than 5 examples of this for sure. Below [...]

Glasser is the solo project of Californian chanteuse Cameron Mesirow, who recorded much of her debut EP and the following 7” on Garageband. She refined and rearranged most of these songs for her debut record Ring , released earlier this month, and first track “Apply” is a perfect introduction: it’s as sweet, sensuous, and slick as the rest of them. In a world (blogosphere?) where you can –- thank God -– find ghostly, haunting electronica delivered by powerful-voiced, talented women whose vocal ranges might not encroach on Mariah but are impressive nonetheless around almost every corner (see: Tamaryn, Zola [...]
