Laura Marling (2012)

7.0/ 10

“Laura Marlin's Once I Was An Eagle shows the British singer-songwriter moving even further away from her folk pop roots, and embracing a moodier sound. Not only that, but Laura's battles with love seem to take center stage as this album's prime subject matter.”

Favorite tracks: BREATHE, MASTER HUNTER, LITTLE LOVE CASTER, LOVE BE BRAVE, LITTLE BIRD, SAVED THESE WORDS

Least favorite track: WHERE CAN I GO?

Recorded prior to a divesting move to Los Angeles, Laura Marling's fourth album is a vigorously polished, hard-won achievement. Expansive and ambitious, spare but intense, dark but somehow sexy, ...Eagle is a scorching interrogation of her own and other's follies that lifts the veil that once hung over her storytelling.
